Abstract
Hydatid disease is an anthropozoonosis due to development of Echinococcus larva in the human host. This parasitic infection causes rarely a renal damage, that’s why only a few cases of glomerular or tubulointerstitial nephropathies linked to hepatic or pulmonary hydatic cysts, have been reported during the last three decades. We report a singular case of membranous nephropathy and tubulointerstitial nephritis associated with a hepatic hydatidosis.
