Daughter Cysts in Hydatid Cyst

Daughter Cysts in Hydatid Cyst

Hydatid cyst may arise anywhere in the body secondary to echinococcus infection. The daughter cysts of hydatid cyst may occur in two patterns: endogenous cysts and exogenous cysts. ENDOGENOUS CYST: Endogenous cysts are present within the main walls of the hydatid cyst as inward extension of lumen in the cystic mass EXOGENOUS CYST: The daughter cyst pushes the wall of main hydatid cyst and eventually disotrts the classic circular imaging pattern. Exogenous cysts are associated with recurrence after surgery. Reference: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31749548/ Image via: https://ispub.com/IJPD/6/1/14471
