Abstract

Background and Objectives: PULMONARY HYDATID DISEASE has various radiographic manifestations that can be misinterpreted as other disease entities. Ozvaran et al, studied the PITFALLS of chest x-ray in the diagnosis of both complicated and uncomplicated cases of PULMONARY HYDATID DISEASE, but they didn't determine the sensitivity and specificity of chest x-ray in this regard. The purpose of the this study, is to determine the PITFALLS as well as sensitivity and specificity of chest x-ray in the diagnosis of hydatid disease. Materials and Methods: Fifty chest radiographs with suspected PULMONARY HYDATID DISEASE were reviewed by 3 radiologists, while they were unaware of the history (blind study), the results of other diagnostic modalities and final diagnosis. The results were compared with final operative diagnosis and pathological reports. Results: The results shown in the tables 1, 2 and 3, revealing PITFALLS in the diagnosis of PULMONARY HYDATID DISEASE. These results have been integrated in the table 4 to determine sensitivity and specificity of this diagnostic modality. The sensitivity of chest x-ray in PULMONARY HYDATID DISEASE was 73% in complicated cases and 78% in uncomplicated ones. The specificity was 72.5% and 72.4%, respectively. Conclusion: Hydatid disease may present in various forms in chest x-ray; therefore, in endemic area it should be considered as a probable diagnosis in every pulmonary lesion. For accurate diagnosis, CT scan, sonography and bronchoscopy, are recommended.
