Hydatid disease of the liver and lungs are both common in Turkey and it’s mostly because of Echinococcus granulosus. 32-year-old woman who had a huge hydatid cyst (30x20 cm) of liver is reported since hepatic hydatid cyst rarely grows this much. Obstructive jaundice was the only complication without a bilier communication. Following albendazole treatment for a period of one month, she underwent partial cystectomy and omentoplasty operation.
