چکیده
Background: Cardiac hydatid cyst is a rare but potentially life-threatening manifestation of Echinococcus granulosus infection, accounting for less than ۲% of hydatid disease cases. Clinical symptoms vary depending on cyst size and location, and diagnosis often requires multimodal imaging.Case presentation: We present the case of a ۳۲-year-old female from an endemic rural area with a ۶-month history of exertional dyspnea and palpitations. Echocardiography and cardiac MRI revealed a large cystic mass in the interventricular septum. The patient underwent successful surgical excision under cardiopulmonary bypass, followed by three months of albendazole therapy. Recovery was uneventful, and six-month follow-up showed no recurrence.Conclusion: Cardiac hydatid cyst should be considered in the differential diagnosis of cardiac masses, especially in endemic regions. Early diagnosis with appropriate imaging and prompt surgical intervention combined with antiparasitic therapy are key to preventing complications and recurrence.کلیدواژه ها
