Hidatidosis cerebral: aspectos clínicos e imagenológicos. Reporte de 4 casos

BRAIN HYDATIDOSIS. REPORT OF FOUR CASES In only 2% of all cases of hydatidosis, the cysts are located in the brain. We report a 12 years old male, a 5 years old girl and a 19 years old female consulting for intracranial hypertension and a 13 years old male consulting for a left hemiparesis. Imaging studies found intra-cerebral cysts with characteristics of hydatidosis in all. All lesions were completely removed surgically and the pathological study of the excised piece confirmed the diagnosis of hydatidosis.
