[Restoration of fertility following excision of an intracranial hydatid cyst].
An unusual case of a 31 year-old Bedouin women, with secondary infertility of 13 years' duration who conceived twice spontaneously after removal of a hydatic cyst from her frontal lobe is reported. The reproductive function was restored probably by releasing the hypothalamic-pituitary axis from the pressure exerted by the cyst.
