Giant Hydatid Cyst: in the Interventricular Septum of a Pregnant Woman

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

A 25-year-old woman, pregnant for 38 weeks, was admitted to our clinic with dyspnea. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a large cyst that originated from the left side of the interventricular septum, decreasing left ventricular volume and almost entirely obstructing the left ventricular outflow tract. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging confirmed a grade 1 hydatid cyst, which measured 61 × 59 × 66 mm.
