Abstract

Introduction: Hydatid disease is caused by a parasite infection induced by an echinococcus tapeworm. The hydatid cyst is one recognized cause of liver mass. It is a significant pathogenic, zoonotic, and parasitic illness (acquired from animals) of humans after consumption of tapeworm eggs produced in the faeces of infected dogs. Hydatid disease is a serious endemic health concern in various regions of the world. Cystic hydatid disease is most often associated with the liver (50–70%), although it can also affect the lung, spleen, kidney, bones, and brain. A hydropneumothorax occurs gradually.

Case Presentation: A 35-year-old Man was taken to the Acharya Vinoba Bhave Rural Hospital with the chief complaint of abdominal discomfort, breathlessness (dyspnea) right side pain for 2 days. Approximately to the peritoneal cavity of the right chest by a hydatid cyst in the subscapular posterior part of the right lobe of the liver. For minimal ascites, a contrast study was conducted, revealing a multi-located hypodense cystic lesion spread across the abdomen was recognized as sign of hydatid disease.

Conclusion: In a patient with a hydatid disease, physical and psychological therapy should be put together. In this study, we primarily focus on professional management and outstanding nursing care, which may give the comprehensive care that hydatid cyst requires. The complete health care team works together to assist the patient to restore his or her prior level of independence and happiness after a full recovery.
