Abstract
The hydatid cyst is a common zoonosis affecting humans and many mammals that are related to the development of the larval form of a dog cestode: Echinococcus Granulosus (EG). Muscle localization of hydatid cysts remains rare. We report the case of localization at the level of the adductor compartment and through the review of the literature; we mention the epidemiological, clinical, radiological and therapeutic aspects of this pathological entity.
