| Abstract | ||
| Abstract Hydatid disease, being endemic in several areas of the world, is of interest even to surgeons in non-endemic areas because they may encounter the disease due to ease and rapidity of travel as well as immigration. Surgery remains the method of choice in the management of hepatic hydatid cysts. Because of limited experience, controversies still exist about the laparoscopic managememt of hepatic hydatid cysts. We report a case of a thirty four years-old male, presented with a well defined large cyst occupying most of the right hepatic lobe successfully treated with laparoscopic total cystectomy. The operation and hospitalization period were uncomplicated. Controlled follow-up clinically & radiologically showed no remaining pathology or recurrence in any form. | ||
