Hydatidosis is a ubiquitous parasitic condition observed in a pulmonary localization in 30 to 40% of cases. The hydatid cyst develops slowly and is well tolerated by the host who presents no signs for a long period. Complications include compression, fissuration, rupture, anaphylactic shock or infection after a latency phase of variable duration. Treatment of pulmonary hydatidosis is classically surgical with enucleation of the cyst by cleavage between the adventice and the anhistic membrane via thorachotomy using the Ugon and Barret procedure. Needle aspiration is also possible via thorachotomy or thoracoscopy. Finally resection of the pulmonary parenchyma can be used to excise the hydatic cyst. We describe a thoracoscopic treatment using specific material, in a man with complications due to a voluminous pulmonary hydatid cyst.
