Hydatidosis is a public health problem in endemic countries. Hydatid cysts are located usually in the liver and the lungs. Primary pancreatic hydatid cyst is in unusual location and rarely causes acute pancreatitis. In this paper, we report a case of a 34-year-old man who admitted with recurrent acute pancreatitis. Following the preoperation investigations, the primary impression was a pancreatic pseudocyst. During surgery, a primary hydatid cyst was detected in the pancreas measuring 35 × 20 × 15 cm. The treatment consisted of evacuation and external draining of the cyst. In addition, we summarized 14 cases of primary hydatid cyst of the pancreas associated with acute pancreatitis reported in the literature.
包虫病在流行国家是一个公共卫生问题。包虫囊肿通常位于肝脏和肺部。原发性胰腺包虫囊肿位置罕见,很少引起急性胰腺炎。在本文中,我们报告了一例34岁男性患者,他因复发性急性胰腺炎入院。术前检查后,初步诊断为胰腺假性囊肿。手术中,在胰腺中发现了一个原发性包虫囊肿,大小为35×20×15厘米。治疗方法包括囊肿引流和外部引流。此外,我们总结了文献中报道的14例与急性胰腺炎相关的原发性胰腺包虫囊肿病例。
