| Abstract | ||
| spinal hydatid disease is rare, even in endemic areas that considered hydatid disease a significant problem. Twelve cases of spinal hydatid were presented, and their management discussed. The authors reviewed most of the recent literatures and proposed a simple classification for hydatid lesions in the spine. The study stressed on consideration of this disease in the differential diagnosis of backache and spinal cord compression in endemic areas before surgical intervention so that measures can be taken to decrease complications and rate of recurrence. | ||
