Primary spinal hydatid cyst is very rare lesion affecting less than 1% of the total cases of the hydatid disease. In this study, we report a case of spinal hydatid in a 5-year old boy presented with a history of backache, leg pain, difficulty in walking, and bowel and bladder incontinence for 4 months. An intradural nonenhancing cystic lesion was detected using magnetic resonance imaging from L4 to sacral region, and histopathological findings were suggestive of hydatid cyst.
原发性脊柱包虫囊肿是一种非常罕见的病变，在包虫病总病例中所占比例不到1%。在本研究中，我们报告了一例5岁男孩的脊柱包虫病病例，该患儿有4个月的背痛、腿痛、行走困难以及大小便失禁病史。通过磁共振成像在腰4至骶骨区域检测到一个硬膜内无强化的囊性病变，组织病理学检查结果提示为包虫囊肿。
