Human hydatidosis occurs mainly as a result of infection with the larvae of Echinococcus granulosus. Cardiac echinococcosis is an uncommon disease and the interventricular septum is rarely involved. This article is a review of all of the literature related to hydatid cyst in the interventricular septum included in the PubMed database. Forty-five cases reported between 1964 and 2019 were identified.Entities:
