Accidentally diagnosed multiple intradural extramedullary spinal
hydatidosis in a young adult: a case report and review of the literature
Abstract
In this paper, we report a rare case of asymptomatic multiple
intradural, extramedullary spinal hydatidosis; accidentally diagnosed in
a patient with signs and symptoms of a true protruded disc. Although
quite rare, vertebral hydatidosis should always be considered as a
differential diagnosis for spinal presentations, particularly in endemic
areas.
