A Rare Etiology of Muscular Mass in Infant: A Case Report
Journal Title: Journal of Health and Medical Sciences - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
The frequent localization of children echinococcosis is the lungs and then the liver. The muscular involvement of hydatidosis is unusual even in endemic countries because implantations at this site require passage through the filters of the liver and lung. In addition, the intramuscular growth of cysts is hindered by the muscle's contractility and lactic acid content. We report a primary solitary intramuscular hydatid was presented to an 8-year-old boy. The diagnosis was made preoperatively with magnetic resonance imaging. Patients were treated with surgical excision and subtotal pericystectomy.
