[Hydatid cysts of the ovary. Description of a case].
Hydatid cysts of the ovary are rare lesions usually secondary to the rupture of an hepatic cyst. They may remain asymptomatic for long periods of time and may be discovered incidentally or cause irritation or compression symptoms. The history and whole abdomen echography consent diagnosis also based on the detection of the primary lesion. A case of hydatid cyst of the ovary is reported.
