The authors examine a series of 44 patients with an acute complication of the hydatid disease of the lung. Clinical data, diagnostic features, surgical procedures and short and long term results are compared with those of 80 cases presenting no complications. Acute complication has in many cases a non specific clinical presentation and its evidence can only be found by means of radiology. The basic principles of surgical treatment are the same of the non complicated cysts, even though resection is more often performed (56.8%) since contextual lung and bronchial involvement is frequent. The authors report no significant difference between short- and long-term results in the two series.
