S.B. Ankara Numune Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi, Beyin ve Sinir Cerrahisi Kliniği, Ankara, Türkiye Cyst hydatic is a parasitary disease caused by ecinnococus larvas and it commonly seen in places where animal breeding is a common occupation. Central nerve system involvement of cyst hydatic is a rare issue. Multiple placed primary cranial involvement is rarely seen in adults. They generally locate in the distribution of multiple cerebral artery. Brain involvement occurs in 1-2% in Echinococcus granulosus infections. Approximately 75% of intracranial cyst hydatids are encountered in children. Cerebral cyst hydatid is generally of single, round and unilocular appearance. They do not demonstrate serious symptoms until they reach large sizes. Serological tests as well as imaging methods, especially in cranial involvements, are of great value in the diagnosis of cyst hydatid. The most curative method is to enucleate of the cyst without bursting it by Dowling's technique, and rinsing the operation cavity with hypertonic sodium chloride. In this paper a multiple primary intracranial adult cyst hydatid case is presented. Anahtar Kelimeler : Cyst hydatic, Cranial involvement, Echinococcus granulosus, Surgical treatment
