[Necessary hip disarticulation in extended echinococcosis of the femur].
The authors have studied one case of pathological fracture of the femoral shaft related to hydatid disease. The diagnosis was based on the presence of whitish vesicles at the surgical procedure. Despite extensive, curettage and a number of other surgical procedures, infected drainage was persisting. The outcome was poor and a hip disarticulation had to be done.
