چکیده

Hydatid cyst is a disease caused by Echinococcus Granulosus and Alveolaris. Often it is localized in the liver and lung. The disease is endemic in Turkey, Mediterranean countries, South Africa, the Middle East, South America and New Zeland [1]. The majority of patients are asymptomatic, with rarely seen signs of cough, dyspnea. Cysts may be symptomatic depending on its size, location and complications. Significant physical examination findings are not available. In pulmonary cyst hydatid disease, well defined round consolidations suggesting cystic lesions can be seen on chest X-ray and surgical treatment is the first choice in this patients. In endemic areas, pulmonary hydatid cyst is a rare cause of anaphylaxis. We present two cases who came to emergency department with anaphylaxis due to different presentations of hydatid cyst disease.
