An abdominal CT revealed a large hepatic lesion (9.5 cm x 6.2 cm x 6.8 cm) with a hyperdense wall and multiple internal calcifications (Figure 1).
(A) Abdominal CT indicating an intra-abdominal cystic lesion, located near an ileal loop. (B) Abdominal CT indicating the aforementioned cystic lesion causing external pressure to the urinary bladder, and a smaller cyst at the right side of the wall of the urinary bladder.

A similar, well circumscribed mass in relation to an ileal loop, that caused external pressure (Figure 2A) to the urinary bladder (5.3 cm x 3.6 cm x 9 cm) and a second, smaller, completely calcified, lesion (2.3 cm x 2 cm x 2.5 cm) near the right side of the urinary bladder (Figure 2B) were also present.
(A,B) The hepatic hydatid cyst was opened and drained. A drainage tube was placed in the area.

The other two intra-abdominal lesions, the one found in the mesentery (Figure 4) (CE4 WHO-IWGE) and the smaller near the urinary bladder (CE5 WGO-IWGE), were simply excised (Figure 5).
