| Abstract: | Cardiac involvement in hydatidosis is rare but because of potentially lethal complications, its recognition is of great importance. The authors present a 55-year-old woman admitted to the clinic with cardiac tamponade and moderate mitral regurgitation caused by a hydatid cyst located at the inferoposterior wall of the left ventricle. |
