Popis: The cardiac location of the echinococcosis is rare. It is associated with complications potentially severe. Indeed, the break inside the cardiac chambers with pulmonary embolism is the inevitable complication of the echinococcosis of the right heart. Between January 1992 and January 2006, five patients were operated in the department of cardiac surgery of Sousse (Tunisia) for an emboligenous hydatid cyst of the right heart. The average age is of 30 years with extremes from 18 to 65 years. The cardio-pulmonary bypass is the technique of choice. We regretted a single death in immediate postoperative period. All the patients were controlled with an average recession of 36 months. A single late death was noticed. No recurrence was observed.
