A rare lesıon of breast: Hydatıd cyst

Abstract

Hydatid cyst (HC) is a lesion most commonly seen in the liver but can occur in many parts of the body. Breast involvement with HC  is extremely rare. It can be isolated or accompanied by other organ involvements. In this report, we present a 46-year-old female with  isolated HC located in the right breast. In the ultrasonography and MR images of the patient, the lesion was compatible with the HC,  and homogenous dens lesion was shown on mammography. Diagnosis of HC was confirmed pathological. With this study, it was aimed to emphasize the radiological findings of isolated breast HC.
