Abstract

We described a 17-year-old male with a large pulmonary hydatid cyst with a spontaneous rupture. He developed acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) requiring mechanical ventilation. He was treated with albendazole, broad-spectrum antibiotics, and corticosteroids. He underwent surgery after discharge. ARDS after rupture of hydatid cyst was rarely reported.
