[Operative procedure for treatment of large and oversize cysts with interlobar location in pulmonary hydatid disease].
A procedure for treating large and oversize cysts with interlobar location, consisting in supplementary post-echinococcotomy draining of the respective interlobar groove using No. 18-20 catheter, is developed. It allows for maximal unfolding of the adjoining parenchyma, adherence of the fibrous capsule walls without any risk of a residual cavity formation. The procedure is successfully used in thirteen patients at average postoperative hospitalization 13.4 days. Both the early and long-term results are estimated as very good.
