[A case of pregnancy with fetal malformation and an hepatic hydatid cyst].

A case of pregnancy, malformation of the foetus--Spina bifida, and hydatidosis hepatis is discussed. The patient is 19-year old, primigravida, pregnant in the 31st gestational week who was admitted to the ward with an observation of Hydrocephalia and fetal compromise (low beat-to-beat variability and lack of accelerations of the fetal heart rate). Un ultrasound scan of the foetus proved hydrocephalia and Spina bifida in the lumbal segment of the fetal spine. Un extended ultrasound scan proved a hydatid cyst of the liver with a 10 mm diameter, corresponding with the data of the serological tests--RAHA 1:400.
