摘要
Echinococcal infection typically affects the liver and lungs. Other locations are rare and constitute about 5% of cases. A solitary hydatid cyst in a typical location may cause diagnostic difficulties. A case of a solitary hydatid cyst of the left kidney diagnosed in a 26-year-old Chechnyan refugee was presented. Visualization of the mass by computed tomography revealed characteristic features that facilitated a proper diagnosis. The course of the diagnostic and therapeutic processes is presented in the article along with the typical features of a kidney cyst blister demonstrated in computed tomography, allowing for a correct diagnosis.
