Multiple Giant Cerebral Hydatid Cysts in Pediatrics

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: In Ethiopia, although multiple giant cerebral hydatid cysts are rare, rural children in close contact with dogs remain at risk. Diagnosis requires clinical suspicion and advanced imaging. Dowling hydrodissection allows intact cyst removal. Preoperative anthelmintics minimize allergic risks. Early Surgical intervention improves neurologic recovery, and follow-up is essential for potential recurrence.
