dc.description.abstractIntroduction: Trauma as a cause of hydatid cyst rupture leads to various clinical conditions, especially in children. Current literatures regarding the clinical presentation and management of such patients are rare. Case report: A 14-year-old child was admitted with chest pain and dyspnoea due to blunt thoracic trauma after falling off a bicycle. Chest computed tomography showed right hydropneumothorax and cystic cavity. After chest tube insertion, massive air leak was observed from the tube. Cystotomy and capitonnage were performed on the right lower lobe via a posterolateral thoracotomy. He was discharged from the hospital in good condition. Conclusion: Ruptured hydatid cysts into the pleura are difficult to diagnose radiologically. It can be misdiagnosed radiologically as empyema or hydrothorax. In undetermined cases, all the findings may be suggestive but not diagnostic. Operation must be performed early for exploration when the condition is suspected. High complication rate has been found in children who were operated late. (Hong Kong j.emerg.med. 2010;17:381-383)
