Abstract

Hydatic cysts of the liver were detected by ultrasound in 121 cases; all cases were confirmed surgically. Scans were classified based on sonographic analysis of the morphology and structure of the cyst. Five categories were found, which are thought to correspond to evolutionary stages of the hydatic cyst.
