Human hydatid disease usually occurs by infestation with Echinococcus granulosus and less frequently with Echinococcus multilocularis. Hydatid cyst occurs endemically in the Middle and Far East, South America, Africa, Australia, New Zealand and in Mediterranean region including Turkey. It’s still an important public health problem in Turkey. A 84 year-old female patient applied to the emergency service beause of the nausea- vomitting, abdomial pain and clouding of consciousness. Her physical examinationfindings were; pulse 112/ dk, blood pressure 84/ 47 mm Hg, body temperature 38,1 oC. In her abdominal tomograpy, there was a cystic- solid mass in left liver lobe that was lamellar structure and average 6 cm size. From its appearance, It was interpreted as ruptured hydatid cyst, at first. In addition, intraabdominal free fluid was determined, too. Rupture of a hydatid cyst into the abdominal cavity is a rare complication of the hydatid disease and causes serious problems and severe, life-threatening complications, including anaphylaxis. The Relation of the cysts between the blood vessels and the bile duct; and the performance status of the patient in emergency service are other parameters affecting the operation process and type. However, we generally encounter a high rate of morbidity and mortality inruptured cyst hydatid surgery case.
