Cardiac echinococcosis has not been reported frequently. Because of the risk of potentially lethal complications, early diagnosis and definitive treatment are very important. We report a case of a cardiac echinococcal cyst in the interventricular septum. The cyst that caused angina and showed ischemic changes in electrocardiogram was diagnosed by two-dimensional echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging and was treated surgically.
心脏包虫病的报道并不常见。由于存在潜在致命并发症的风险，早期诊断和确定性治疗非常重要。我们报告一例位于室间隔的心脏包虫囊肿病例。该囊肿导致心绞痛并在心电图上显示缺血性改变，通过二维超声心动图和磁共振成像得以诊断，并接受了手术治疗。
