title: Laparoscopic management of genitourinary hydatid cyst disease.
abstract: Hydatid disease is endemic in parts of India. Genitourinary involvement is rare. Laparoscopic management of such cases is uncommonly reported. We present our experience of laparoscopic management of two cases of retrovesical hydatid cyst treated by laparoscopic aspiration, instillation, and suction and two cases of renal hydatid cyst treated by partial nephrectomy and cystopericystectomy with preservation of renal parenchyma.
