Hydatid disease is a parasitic infection resulted by in the larval stage and is most prevalent in the Middle East, India, Africa, South America, New Zealand, Australia, Turkey and Southern Europe. However, orbital hydatid cysts are rare and represent a challenge to the surgeon to eradicate the cyst without rupture. Here, we report a case of a relatively large primary intraconal orbital cyst in a 21-year-old woman. We managed to eradicate the cyst without any complication using fronto-orbitozygomatic approach, and the patient remained disease free after the 3 months of follow-up.
包虫病是由幼虫阶段的寄生虫感染引起的，在中东、印度、非洲、南美洲、新西兰、澳大利亚、土耳其和南欧最为普遍。然而，眼眶包虫囊肿很少见，对于外科医生来说，要在不破裂的情况下根除囊肿是一项挑战。在此，我们报告一例21岁女性相对较大的原发性眶内囊肿病例。我们采用额眶颧入路成功根除囊肿且无任何并发症，随访3个月后患者无疾病复发。
