Abstract:
Hydatid disease primarily affects the liver which is the most common location. This article highlights a rare representation of the hydatid disease which has led to hematogenous spread of the disease and gives us a wider picture that how a common disease can have an uncommon presentation. Another point that is addressed in this research article is that the widely accepted classification systems for hydatid disease can be modified even further, making them even more accurate. Here, we present a case of a 32-year-old male (non-smoker and non-alcoholic) who presented with focal neurological deficit, diffuse headache, diffuse abdominal pain, and breathing difficulties for the past six months. The patient is a known farmer and lives in an agricultural sheep-grazing area. With the help of MRI brain and non-contrast CT (NCCT) chest and abdomen, it was confirmed to be a case of multiple hepatic hydatid cysts in various stages, with transdiaphragmatic spread to adjacent lung and cerebral hydatidosis as evident by focal neurological deficit. No history of seizures has been given by the patient.
摘要:
包虫病主要影响肝脏,这是最常见的位置。本文重点介绍了一种罕见的包虫病,该包虫病导致了该疾病的血行传播,并为我们提供了更广泛的图片,即常见疾病如何具有罕见的表现。在这篇研究文章中讨论的另一点是,广泛接受的包虫病分类系统可以进一步修改,让他们更准确。这里,我们介绍了一个32岁的男性(非吸烟者和非酒精),他表现为局灶性神经功能缺损,弥漫性头痛,弥漫性腹痛,过去六个月呼吸困难。该患者是已知的农民,并且生活在农业放牧区。在MRI脑部和非对比CT(NCCT)胸部和腹部的帮助下,已证实为不同阶段的多发性肝包虫囊肿,经膈扩散到邻近的肺和脑包虫病,表现为局灶性神经功能缺损。患者无癫痫病史。
