Issue Date: | 20-јан-2021 | Publisher: | Scientific Foundation SPIROSKI | Journal: | Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences | Abstract: | BACKGROUND: Echinococcosis of the heart has a rate 0.02–2% of all hydatid diseases. Clinical presentation is depending of the location of hydatid cyst in the heart. Patients can be an asymptomatic case or lethal stroke, arrhythmias, valvular dysfunction, pulmonary edema, cardiac tamponade, cardiac failure, shock, and even death. CASE REPORT: We present a case report, a 14-year-old child with 2 weeks of sore throat, whooping cough, subfebrile condition, sweating, fatigue and physical weakness, nausea, abdominal pain, and decreased appetite. He came to emergency room with cardiogenic shock and pulmonary edema. He was diagnosed with intramyocardial hydatid cyst. CONCLUSION: Echinococcus cyst lesion in the LV in lateral wall, not communicating with the LV cavity, has been removed successfully with on-pump technique in a 14-year-oldchild. Median sternotomy was preferred and cardiopulmonary bypass has been considered the safest method. Supplemental medical therapy with albendazole is recommended to reduce the risk of recurrence. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12188/28245 | DOI: | 10.3889/oamjms.2021.5533 |
