We report a 33-year-old female who was admitted to the hospital with abdominal discomfort due to the pancreatic mass. A diagnosis of a pancreatic cystic mass was established through abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography scan. Hydatid disease as well as a cystic neoplasm of the pancreas were both thought in the differential diagnosis. Distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy was performed. The histopathologic evaluation of the specimen revealed a hydatid cyst affecting the tail of the pancreas. Hydatid disease Should be considered in the differential diagnosis of all cystic masses of the pancreas, especially in endemic regions.en10.1097/SMJ.0b013e31819c3befinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessHydatid CystNeoplasmPancreasArticle1025529530Q3WOS:0002660493000242-s2.0-6564910256719373169Q3
