We report a case of a 45-year-old female patient with no prior medical history who presented with five days of abdominal pain, vomiting, and cessation of feces and gas. Physical examination revealed diffuse abdominal tenderness with mild distension. Laboratory tests showed an inflammatory syndrome (WBC: 9,400/µL, CRP: 21 mg/L). Abdominal CT revealed small bowel obstruction with a distended ileum and jejunum.

Hydatid cysts are zoonotic infections caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus. While the liver and lungs are the primary organs affected by these parasitic cysts, subcutaneous involvement is relatively rare, with an estimated incidence of up to 3%. In this report, we present the case of a 45-year-old Tunisian man diagnosed with a subcutaneous intermuscular hydatid cyst.
