We describe a rare case of intact endobronchial hydatid cyst that posed a diagnostic challenge because of an unusual imaging manifestation (atelectasis) and unexpected bronchoscopic findings. Although the role of bronchoscopy in the management of pulmonary hydatid cyst is still controversial, 6 cases of complicated pulmonary hydatid cyst removed completely by suction through a fiberoptic bronchoscope have been reported so far. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first nonsurgically treated case of intact endobronchial hydatid cyst with an uneventful long-term follow-up.
我们描述了一例罕见的完整支气管内包虫囊肿病例，因其不寻常的影像学表现（肺不张）和意外的支气管镜检查结果而带来诊断挑战。尽管支气管镜检查在肺包虫囊肿治疗中的作用仍存在争议，但迄今为止已有6例复杂肺包虫囊肿通过纤维支气管镜吸引完全切除的报道。据我们所知，这是首例非手术治疗的完整支气管内包虫囊肿病例，且长期随访情况良好。
