Heart, Lung, and Circulation, 02/10/09

Salehi M et al. - Two cases of cardiac hydatid cysts with negative serologic tests are reported herein. In Case 1, the patient underwent surgery to remove cysts from the liver and 10 years later presented with symptoms and signs of ischaemic heart disease. In Case 2, the patient first underwent surgery to remove cysts from the brain and 3 years later for cyst removal from the breast.
