Hydatid disease is a broad-based anthropozoonosis common to humans and several mammal species. The disease results from the development of Echinococcus granulosis in the body.
We report a new case involving a 58-year old woman hospitalized for a subcutaneous mass in the scalp with no local inflammatory signs. Radiological examination was consistent with a subcutaneous cyst. Complete surgical resection of the mass was performed. Histopathological examination demonstrated hydatid cyst.
Subcutaneous localization of hydatid cyst is uncommon even in endemic zone. Diagnosis is suggested by ultrasonography and confirmed by histology.
包虫病是一种广泛存在的人畜共患病，常见于人类和多种哺乳动物。该疾病是由细粒棘球绦虫在体内发育所致。
我们报告一例新病例，患者为一名58岁女性，因头皮皮下肿块入院，无局部炎症体征。影像学检查结果与皮下囊肿相符。对肿块进行了完整的手术切除。组织病理学检查显示为包虫囊肿。
即使在流行地区，包虫囊肿的皮下定位也不常见。超声检查可提示诊断，组织学检查可确诊。
