[Costal hydatid cyst (report of 2 cases)].
Hydatidosis is an endemic affection in our country. Hepatic and pulmonary localisation is the most frequent. The other localisation especially in the bone, are exceptional. We report 2 cases of costal hydatid diagnosed on 17 and 33 years old male patients admitted for parietal tumor respectively localized in cervix and thorax. The diagnosis, suspected on chest tomography is confirmed by histologic patterns of resected rib.
