ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Research background
The duodenum is an organ that is very rarely affected by hydatid cysts, either primarily or secondarily.
Research motivation
Duodenal involvement by hydatidosis is an exceptional finding and this study aimed to characterize epidemiological, clinical and diagnostic features and options of treatments.
Research objectives
Our aim is to characterize epidemiological, clinical and pathological features and options of treatment in hydatidosis with duodenal involvement.
Research methods
We perform a system review including all patients with hydatidosis and duodenal involvement following PRISMA guidelines.
Research results
This review shows that the most frequent symptoms were abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting. Computed tomography was the most used diagnostic imaging technique, and hydatid cyst drainage and fistula closure via laparotomy was the most frequent treatment.
Research conclusions
Literature on hydatidosis with duodenal involvement is scarce, only case reports, so the evidence is low.
