Methods: In this retrospective study, 24 patients were operated for hydatid disease between March 1991 and March 1996 in three medical centers of Babol University of Medical Sciences, and the results were analyzed. Findings: 117 cases (70.8%) were operated in Shahid Beheshti hospital. There were 12 men (50%) and 12 women (50%). Most patients (33.3%) were in 41-60 years age group. 16 cases (66.6%) were from rural areas. The results indicated that the highest percentage of infection was among the housewives (37.5%). Liver was the most affected organ (41.6%). A case of bilateral hydatid lung disease is reported. Conclusion: In conclusion, local as well as national programs, community participation, health education, epidemiological and serological studies especially in high risk groups are necessary for hydatidosis control.S GhaffariBabol University of Medical Sciencesarticlehydatidosishydatid cystsoperationMedicineRMedicine (General)R5-920ENFAMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, Vol 1, Iss 1, Pp 27-33 (1999)
