Popis: Hydatid disease with pulmonary tuberculosis coexisting in a patient is an extremely rare occurrence. A patient presenting with nonspecific chest symptoms must be adequately investigated and hydatidosis must be ruled out. This case report presents the unusual coexistence of tuberculosis and hydatid disease in an adult male and its subsequent diagnosis and management.
