Abstract
Echinococcosis presents diverse clinical manifestations, including pulmonary hydatidosis, often asymptomatic but complicated by rare yet dramatic occurrences like hydatoptysis. Here, we report a unique case of recurrent pulmonary and abdominal hydatidosis in a 59-year-old female with bronchial fistulization and hydatoptysis, despite previous surgical interventions. Imaging revealed characteristic features aiding in diagnosis and management decisions. The challenges in managing recurrent echinococcosis underscore the importance of comprehensive follow-up and multidisciplinary care. Surgical intervention remains pivotal, supplemented by medical therapy with careful consideration of risks and benefits. This case also presents rare images, absent in much of the literature, which provide valuable insights into the disease's presentation and progression.
