Abstract

Echinococcus is a great re-emerging public health issue. Intrathoracic and extra pulmonary hydatid cysts with pseudochylothorax are rare. There is no standard treatment in case of hydatidosis with pseudochylothorax. Pharmacotherapy approaches may be an option in case of long duration of disease and high risk for surgery. © 2018 The Authors. Clinical Case Reports published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
