title: [Surgical treatment of hepatic hydatidosis. Current trends].
abstract: The authors report their experience relative to 33 patients with hepatic hydatidosis surgically treated during the years 1987 through 1993. Various surgical techniques were employed: subtotal (21 cases) and total (5 cases) cystopericystectomy, partial pericystectomy (12 cases), hepatic resection (2 cases). The postoperative rate complication was 30% (4 cases of cholangitis, 4 biliary fistulas, 1 suppuration of residual cavity and 1 colonic fistula). The postoperative morbidity was higher in patients treated with partial pericystectomy. There was no postoperative mortality.
