Article Abstract
Background: Hydatid cyst disease (HCD), caused by the larvae of (), can lead to rare vascular complications. This case report details the diagnosis and management of a patient with a hepatic hydatid cyst complicated by extensive multi-venous thrombosis.
Case Presentation: A 61-year-old male stockbreeder presented with abdominal pain localized in the hypogastric region, exacerbated by food intake. Imaging revealed a hepatic HCD and thrombosis of the portal, superior mesenteric, and splenic veins. The patient was successfully treated with albendazole for the cyst and anticoagulant therapy for the thrombosis, with no recurrence of symptoms during a three-year follow-up period.
Conclusion: While multi-venous thrombosis associated with HCD is rare, documented cases highlight the need for increased awareness among physicians to effectively recognize and manage this complication.

Leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LCV) is a type of vasculitis that affects small vessels and is commonly associated with infections, malignancies, drugs, and autoimmune diseases. In this case, a 75-year-old female patient presented with clinical signs of LCV, and after ruling out common etiologies, hydatid disease (HD) emerged as a potential cause. This case highlights the importance of considering parasitic infections, particularly HD, in the differential diagnosis of LCV, especially in regions where these infections are endemic and in patients exposed to relevant environmental risk factors.

Ibrutinib, a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, has transformed the management of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) but is associated with an elevated risk of bleeding. We report a rare case of hepatic subcapsular hematoma due to ibrutinib in a patient with relapsed MCL. Ultrasound was crucial in the early detection, monitoring, and management of this rare but potentially severe complication.

Hepatic cystic echinococcosis (HCE), a liver manifestation of hydatid disease, is among the 17 neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) prioritized by the WHO for eradication by 2025. Although imaging and serological tests are currently the main diagnostic approaches for HCE, they have notable limitations in sensitivity and specificity. Here, we applied liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)-based metabolomic profiling to uncover differential metabolites and highlight disrupted metabolic pathways, aiming to identify candidate biomarkers for HCE diagnosis.
