[Pelvic hydatidosis in women. Apropos of 3 cases].
In 80 to 90% of cases, hydatid disease affects the liver and the lung. In only 2% of cases is it localised in the pelvis. On the clinical level there is no specific sign of pelvic hydatid disease. The diagnosis used to be difficult but it has become easy, thanks to modern methods of imaging. The authors report 3 cases that were diagnosed by ultrasound and tomodensitometry. Surgical removal, which was carried out in each case without difficulty, was successful. They review the ultrasound and tomodensitometry pictures of hydatid disease and the principles of its surgical treatment.
