In the context of a personal series of fifteen cases of hydatid cyst of the heart, the authors present a computerized review of the last one hundred cases published in the literature. The modern features of the disease are discussed together with its severity (mortality of 23.47% in 98 recent cases). Despite the considerable contribution of ultrasonography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, a certain number of pejorative criteria appear to persist:delayed diagnosis, diagnostic error, acute pulmonary oedema and incomplete surgical cure.
在作者个人收集的15例心脏包虫囊肿病例的背景下，他们对文献中发表的最近100例病例进行了计算机化回顾。讨论了该疾病的现代特征及其严重程度（98例近期病例的死亡率为23.47%）。尽管超声检查、计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像有很大贡献，但一些不利标准似乎仍然存在：诊断延迟、诊断错误、急性肺水肿和手术治愈不完全。
