Abstract
Mediastinal hydatid cyst is a rare disease and should be considered in differential diagnosis of mediastinal cystic lesions especially in endemic regions. This localization is very serious because of the surrounding vital structures. Surgery must be indicated immediately using conservative techniques without extensive resection when progression of dissection is difficult or dangerous. Medical treatment is necessary to prevent recurrence.
