An unusual cause of pulmonary hypertension: Mediastinal hydatid cyst
Hydatid disease is a parasitic zoonosis prevalent in sheep-rearing areas. The lung is the second most commonly involved organ following the liver. Intra-thoracic and extra-pulmonary hydatid disease is rare and can affect the mediastinum, heart, diaphragm, pleura, and chest wall. Uncommon locations r...
