Abstract
The simultaneous double localization of hydatid cysts in the psoas and gluteal muscles is exceptional. The purpose of this case report is to describe a hydatid cyst located in the left gluteal and psoas muscle in a 28-year-old patient. Ultrasound, CT scan and a positive hydatid serology contributed to the preoperative diagnosis. The patient was operated in two stages. The evolution was good without recurrence after the surgical treatment.
