摘要
Metastatic deposits from primary ovarian malignancy can manifest as cystic masses in the liver. In endemic areas, hydatid disease is an important differential in all cases of cystic hepatic masses. We report a case of a 55-year-old lady who presented with progressive abdominal distension and was diagnosed with primary ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma. Imaging revealed concurrent lesions in the liver that were thought to be metastatic deposits but was later diagnosed as hydatid cyst based on radiologic features and serology. We report this rare case to highlight the importance of suspecting a hydatid cyst in endemic areas and its varied manifestations.
