โฆ Synopsis
classified as lung cysts; 15 of these were bilateral. Reporting these, H. K. Christie (1938), added an additional case, making in all 16, with a mortality of 25 per cent ; 7 of the 16 cases were children under 8 ; of the adults, males predominated. Bilateral cases have also been referred to by Th. Shrire (1938), J. Arce (1941), A. Hope Gosse (I942), and others.
Conclusions
I . Bilateral lung infestation is not common. This is only the second example we have encountered in South Wales and the first bilateral case we have operated upon, though in the two years preceding the admission of this patient one of us (A. L. d'Abreu) treated 5 cases of pulmonary hydatid disease, 2 by drainage and cyst excision, and 3 by one-stage lobectomy.
