Abstract
Cardiac hydatid cyst is a very rarely seen. It primarily involves the lungs and liver. Treatment of cardiac hydatid cysts is surgical and subsequent medical therapy with albendazole to prevent relapses. Herein, we report a 14-year-old male case who underwent a surgical operation six months ago due to a hydatid cyst in the liver and developed cardiac hydatid cyst in the interventricular septum despite postoperative albendazole therapy.
