Computed tomography findings with surgical details are presented in a case of hydatid cyst of posterior mediastinum, a rare site of involvement in echinococcosis infestation. The computed tomography appearance of posterior mediastinal echinococcosis is quite characteristic and can be readily distinguished from other cystic lesions of the mediastinum. Computed tomography provides additional information regarding the involvement of neighboring structures. In this case, computed tomography detected involvement of the descending aorta.
本文呈现了一例后纵隔包虫囊肿的计算机断层扫描（CT）结果及手术细节，后纵隔是棘球蚴病感染中较少累及的部位。后纵隔棘球蚴病的CT表现颇具特征，可轻易与纵隔的其他囊性病变相区分。CT还提供了有关邻近结构受累情况的额外信息。在此病例中，CT检测到降主动脉受累。
