Popis: |
The bone involvement is uncommon in hydatid disease and represents less than 2 % of cases. Vertebral hydatidosis is the most common bone localization (44 %). The severity of vertebral echinococcosis is related to the neurological complications and therapeutic problems especially in advanced stages. The treatment relies on the actual surgical removal of hydatidosis. In endemic countries, prevention and health education are the best measures. We report a 17-year-old male who presented with an incomplete paraplegia with thoracic deformation, revealing a costovertebral hydatidosis. |
