Despite the prevalence of hydatid cyst in humans, its occurrence in the heart is rare. The clinical signs of the mentioned cyst in the heart are diverse, which makes its diagnosis challenging. In addition, the cardiac hydatidosis is diagnosed late as this disease progresses gradually. In this report, the cases discussed of a case with intraventricular cardiac hydatid cyst with coronary artery disease and multiple hepatic hydatid cysts. After diagnosis, the patient underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery, and the cyst was successfully removed. Considering the probability of heart involvement in endemic regions, devoting due attention to the disease as well as performing faster diagnosis of the disease can play a significant role in reducing its complications.
尽管人类包虫囊肿很常见,但其在心脏中的发生却很罕见。上述心脏囊肿的临床症状多种多样,这使得其诊断具有挑战性。此外,心脏包虫病由于病情逐渐发展,诊断往往较晚。在本报告中,讨论了一例患有心室内心脏包虫囊肿合并冠状动脉疾病和多发肝包虫囊肿的病例。诊断后,患者接受了冠状动脉搭桥手术,囊肿被成功切除。考虑到流行地区心脏受累的可能性,对该疾病给予应有的关注并更快地进行诊断,对于减少其并发症可能会起到重要作用。
