dc.description.abstractPurpose Abdominothoracic fistulas are severe complications of hydatid disease. We report here on the results of surgical treatment of hydatid abdominopleural fistulas in 6 patients. Material and Methods Between 2004 and 2010, 6 patients with abdominothoracic fistulas (ATF) were treated. The patients were 3 men and 3 women (age range: 4762 years; median age: 57.1 years). The main symptoms were dyspnea, chest pain, cough, purulent sputum, high fever in 4 patients and additionally bilioptysis in 2. Fistulas were left abdominopulmonary in 1, hepatopulmonary in 2 and hepatopleural in 3 patients. Results Five patients were operated for ATF and 1 patient was treated with tube thoracostomy. In 4 patients, liver dome hydatid cyst abscesses were exposed through a right thoracophrenotomy, a first left thoracophrenotomy was performed in 1 patient followed by a second left lower lobectomy due to a destroyed lobe. Tube thoracostomy and percutaneous transhepatic drainage was applied successfully in Patient #5. All patients were discharged from hospital in good health. Our strategy consisted of adequate evacuation of the intrahepatic cyst with dissection and closure of the fistula via thoracophrenotomy. Discussion ATF due to hydatid cyst is uncommon. In rare cases ATF may be present at the abdominal, thoracic or diaphragmatic level. Thoracophrenotomy is the best surgical treatment for all three levels.en_US
