Summary
This case report describes a 29-year-old pregnant woman at 22 weeks' gestation who was incidentally diagnosed with two large hepatic hydatid cysts during a routine ultrasound.
Usefulness & Problems
Why this is useful
Routine ultrasound served as the immediate diagnostic encounter that revealed two large hepatic hydatid cysts in this pregnant patient.; incidental detection of hepatic hydatid cysts during pregnancy

Problem solved
It can uncover clinically important cysts even when they are found incidentally rather than through symptom-driven workup.; enables detection of otherwise unsuspected cysts during routine prenatal imaging

Published Workflows
Objective: Manage a complex pregnancy-associated hydatid disease case by detecting cysts, addressing rupture risk, and balancing maternal-fetal safety through individualized multidisciplinary care.
Why it works: The abstract states that ultrasonography enabled detection, high rupture risk motivated second-trimester surgery, and individualized multidisciplinary management helped achieve favorable maternal and neonatal outcomes.

Individualized, multidisciplinary management was important for achieving favorable maternal and neonatal outcomes in this complex hydatid disease pregnancy case.
This case highlights the critical importance of individualized, multidisciplinary management in achieving favorable maternal and neonatal outcomes in complex presentations of hydatid disease during pregnancy.
Diagnostic imaging, particularly ultrasonography, plays a central role in detection of hydatid disease during pregnancy.
