To emphasise that hydatid cyst disease can present as a soft tissue mass even in an unusual site like the thigh, we report the case of a 21-year male patient who presented to Surgical Unit IV, Civil Hospital, Karachi, with a slow growing cystic swelling on the medial aspect of the left thigh. Based on serology and imaging, a diagnosis of solitary subcutaneous hydatid cyst thigh was made and cystopericystectomy was performed. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis. Up to three months postoperatively, there was no recurrence. In the absence of visceral organ involvement, this is the first reported case of primary subcutaneous hydatid disease of the thigh in Pakistan.
为强调即使在大腿这样不寻常的部位，包虫囊肿病也可表现为软组织肿块，我们报告一例21岁男性患者的病例，该患者因左大腿内侧缓慢生长的囊性肿物就诊于卡拉奇市民医院外科四病区。基于血清学和影像学检查，诊断为孤立性大腿皮下包虫囊肿，并进行了囊肿外囊切除术。组织病理学确诊了该诊断。术后三个月内无复发。在无内脏器官受累的情况下，这是巴基斯坦首例报告的原发性大腿皮下包虫病病例。
