Abstract:
Objective This study was to evaluate a new radical resection of hepatic hydatidosis. MethodSince 1999, total subadventitial cystectomy through the intraadventitial space of the hepatic hydatid cyst was performed on thirty patients with 45 liver hydatid cysts. Results The procedure was successful in all cases with no intraoperative rupture of the cysts. The average blood loss per cyst was 20?ml. There was no operative mortality, nor postoperative complications. Twenty one cases were followed up for an average period of 11 months with no recurrence. Conclusions The results indicate that the new procedure is a safe and radical alternative for the treatment of hepatic hydatidosis.
