Only a few cases of intraventricular hydatid cysts have been described. The camalote or water lily sign is described when there is detachment of the endocyst membrane, resulting in a floating appearance like a water lily. This sign has been described most commonly in hepatic cysts. Here, we describe the camalote sign in an iatrogenically ruptured intraventricular hydatid cyst. Rupture of an intraventricular hydatid cyst poses the threat of widespread dissemination and is described in our case.
仅有少数几例脑室包虫囊肿的病例被描述过。当囊内细胞膜脱落时,会出现“camalote 或睡莲征”,表现为像睡莲一样漂浮的外观。这种征象在肝囊肿中最为常见。在此,我们描述了一例医源性破裂的脑室包虫囊肿的“camalote 征”。脑室包虫囊肿破裂会有广泛播散的风险,在我们的病例中对此进行了描述。
