title: Hydatid cyst of the right ventricle in early pregnancy.
abstract: Although hydatic cyst disease rarely involves myocardium and endocardium, cardiac echinococcosis, a potentially life-threatening condition, should be managed promptly. We report a case of right ventricle hydatid cyst detected after syncopal attack in a pregnant woman by using echocardiography.
