Abstract
Hydatid cyst is a zoonotic disease that is common worldwide. Turkey is an endemic region for hydatid cyst due to the widespread farming and animal husbandry. Echinococcus granulosus is the most common infestation species in humans, and humans are the incidental intermediate host. The cyst formed by this zoonotic cause is expected to be localized in either lungs or the liver, depending on the part of the life cycle in humans. Soft tissue or intramuscular presence of the cyst is rare. Herein, we present a hydatid cyst case with an unusual localization.
