title: [The surgical treatment of hydatid disease of liver and lungs: the state of art].
abstract: Results of surgical treatment of 65 patients with the combined hydatid disease were analyzed. Lung invasion was combind with liver cysts in 57 patients, spleen -- in 2 patients, soft tissues of the thorax - in 2 patients and retroperitoneal cysts were found in 3 patients. Lung echinococcectomy with the use of minithoracotomy proved to be a method of choice. The access permits early recovery and shorter rehabilitation period, allowing to perform the second liver surgery on the 3--7th day after the first operation.
