Abstract
Hydatid cysts infrequently affect the genital tract, with uterine involvement being exceptionally rare. Diagnosing such cases is challenging due to potentially misleading clinical and radiological findings, with confirmation often achieved only through surgical exploration and histopathological examination. In this article, we present case of a disseminated hydatid disease with rare uterine involvement.
