Echinococcus taenia occurs in human accidentally after contamination by infected dust of dog. Although it may localize in all parts of the body as a hydatic cyst, liver, lung and kidney are the most frequent sites. Intra-orbital localization is rare since all statistical studies estimate it to be one per cent of orbital tumours. Using computerized axial tomography (C.A.T. Scanner) ten cases of intra-orbital hydatic cyst originating from Algiers, Tunis Hospitals and C.N.O. des Quinze-Vingts of Paris were studied. The inclusion of C.A.T. scanning in the orbital evaluation enables more positive preoperative diagnosis and facilitates the choice of the most efficient surgical approach.
