Abstract

Hydatid cyst of the heart is a rare but potentially fatal disease. There have been reports of the occurrence of such cysts, but we present here a unique experience of mistaken identity of a right ventricular intramyocardial hydatid cyst for a mediastinal hydatid cyst, leading to a dangerous intraoperative procedure.
