title: Retroperitoneal laparoscopic approach for renal hydatid cyst in children. A technical report.
abstract: Renal hydatid disease is a rare pathological condition in children. Hydatid cyst of the kidney corresponds to 2-4% of all hydatid disease cases. Minimally invasive techniques have been used in the treatment of renal hydatid cysts but surgical experience is limited. We report a 10-year-old patient with a left renal hydatid cyst treated using a retroperitoneal laparoscopic technique.
