Abstract
Pericardial localization of hydatid cysts is rare, with a negative hydatid serology in almost half of the cases. It usually occurs in association with mediastinal or peritoneal involvement. Medical imaging remains an important diagnostic element. We report an observation of pericardial involvement associated with mediastinal and peritoneal involvement.
