Abdominal CT scan (not shown) showed a single large cyst in the right lobe of liver measuring 12 cm. It appeared to contain several smaller cysts within it. The findings were considered to be diagnostic of hydatid cyst. The patient also had mild peripheral eosinophilia.
The image shows parts of the collapsed wall of the larger cyst (lower right and upper left) and several intact daughter cysts ranging in size from 1 cm to 5 cm.
