Abstract
Pediatric hypernatremia is a rare electrolyte abnormality. However, it can be a complication
of hypertonic saline irrigation in hydatid disease. In our case report, we present a ten-year-old
boy with splenic hydatid cyst who received operation treatment and developed electrolyte disturbances. Our aim is to emphasize the potential dangers of the use of hypertonic saline and the
appropriate management of hypernatremia.
