title: [Surgical treatment of echinococcal cysts with double hepatic and pulmonary localizations].
abstract: On the basis of some personal cases and with reference to world literature on the subject, the surgical treatment of liver and lung localized echinococcus cyst is discussed. Special attention is paid to 1) thoracotomy which may in some cases become a thoraco-phreno-laparatomy, the only approach which leads to really effective control of the field; 2) problems of suction drainage, particularly as regards diaphragm mobility in cases of thoraco-phreno-laparatomy.
