Abstract
Hydatid disease may occur in any organ of the human body, but an isolated retrovesical hydatid (RVH) cyst is rare. We report two cases of isolated RVH cyst - one mimicking an ovarian cyst, the other presenting as acute urinary retention - and a third case of RVH cyst associated with bladder and rectal fi stula and a hepatic hydatid cyst.
Keywords: Retrovesical hydatid cyst, bladder fi stula, rectal fistula, pelvic cystic mass.
