We report for the first time treatment of hydatid cyst of the liver laparoscopically. The patient is a 27-year-old man who presented to our hospital with a 6-week history of recurrent right-upper-quadrant pain with abdominal ultrasound findings compatible with hydatid cyst of the liver. The cyst was approached laparoscopically using the same hydatid asepsis as in open surgery. The cyst was evacuated laparoscopically and marsupialized, and its remaining cavity was packed with omentum. The patient did well postoperatively and was discharged home on the third postoperative day. He had minimal biliary leak that ceased spontaneously on the fifth postoperative day.
