Abstract

Surgery is the usual way of treatment in liver HYDATID CYST , but sometimes it is accompanied by morbidity or complications and even mortality. Because of underlying disease, surgical procedure could be difficult in some patients and occasionally postsurgical recurrence occures Efficacy and safety of medical therapy in HYDATID CYST is questionable therefore investigations in HYDATID CYST treatment with less complicated and more applicable modalities seems to be necessary in all patients.In this descriptive prospective study, ten unilocular peripheral liver HYDATID CYST in seven patients (4 females and 3) male which had been documented by laboratory and radiological findings were selected. Eight hundred milligram of Albendazole had been administered orally to each patient daily for 10 days and thereafter the cyst was drained percutaneously under sonographic guidance. Whole content of cysts aspirated with fine needle and fifty percent of cyst volume were replaced by scolicidal solution and after twenty minutes this fluid completely aspirated. The selected scolicidal was hypertonic saline for one half of cysts and ethanol (95%) for the other half. Volumes of cysts were between 12-350 ml and the volume of injected scolicidal fluids between 6-150 ml. Albendazole continued for twenty days after drainage. Patients were followed for two years. Age of patients was between 18 and 44 years. The diameter of cysts was between 3 to 9 centimeter. The most common sign was abdominal pain. During the follow up period two liver cysts completely disappeared. Three cysts became hypoechoic mimicking pseudotumor with same or smaller size than primitive cysts. In three cysts during the follow up the size of cysts decreased and internal echo area and floating and detachment of germinal layer in site of cyst was appeared. Allergic reaction was not seen in any patient. Liver enzymes and blood cell count before and after the procedure were normal. No sign of cyst recurrence was seen in abdomen or pelvis. Regarding the results, it is concluded that PERCUTANEOUS DRAINAGE may be one of the modalities of treatment in unilocular peripheral liver HYDATID CYST but investigation should be continued.
