Abstract

A 27-year-old woman developed recurrent hydatid of liver. CT scan showed unilocular cysts in segments IV and VII. Intraoperatively, there was a fistulous communication between the gall bladder and the cyst in segment IV. Partial pericystectomy along with cholecystectomy was done for the segment IV cyst; percutaneous aspiration, instillation and re-aspiration using hypertonic saline was done for the cyst in segment VII. This was followed by albendazole treatment.
