We describe a rare case of hydatid cyst in the spleen which communicated to the left pleural cavity. The patient presented with respiratory distress, characterized by nonproductive cough and dyspnea. The difficulties in diagnosis, using standard laboratory and radiologic techniques, were overcome by the use of ultrasound examination diagnosing both the cysts and the supra-diaphragmatic extension.
我们描述了一例罕见的脾包虫囊肿病例，该囊肿与左胸腔相通。患者表现为呼吸窘迫，以干咳和呼吸困难为特征。通过超声检查诊断囊肿及膈上延伸部分，克服了使用标准实验室和放射学技术进行诊断的困难。
