[Multiple pulmonary hydatidosis associated with intracardiac cyst. Apropos of a case].
The authors report the case of a 48-year old woman who had bilateral pulmonary hydatid cysts revealed by haemoptysis and in whom an intracardiac hydatid cyst was discovered in the course of evaluation. The intracardiac cyst probably was the starting point for the migration of emboli to the lungs via the pulmonary arteries.
