title: [Perforations of hepatic hydatid cysts].
abstract: Out of a total of 753 patients operated for liver echinococcosis, in 43 (5.71 per cent) various perforations are observed, namely: in the biliary apparatus, chest, abdominal cavity, gastrointestinal tract, subphrenic and subcutaneous tissue. Their incidence in bile ducts is the highest. The lethality is rather elevated with two patients dying on the operating table. In conclusion, proceeding from the severity of the complication emphasis is laid on the necessity of early diagnosis of the disease, before development of serious complications, successfully achieved in the last few years.
