چکیده
Although it is frequent to see hydatid cyst patients in endemic areas, intrabiliary rupture of hydatid cyst in children is rare. Intrabiliary rupture was first reported in 1928 by Dew (1). Intrabiliary rupture is a serious complication of hepatic hydatid cyst. The incidence varies from 1% to 25% in adult patients (2). Rupture of the hydatid cyst into the bile ducts is a rare condition in children (3). In this report, a case of acute abdomen caused by intrabiliary rupture of a hydatid cyst is presented.
