In this prospective study, we aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of thoracoscopy in patients with lung hydatid disease. We studied the advantages of thoracoscopic procedure over posterolateral thoracotomy.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 32 patients with an uncomplicated, unilateral lung hydatid cyst were subjected to surgical treatment over a period of 5 years. Of the 32 patients, 18 were treated with thoracotomy and 14 with thoracoscopy. Observations were made with regard to duration and ease of operation, complications, hospital stay, return to activity, and recurrence.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The mean operative duration in the thoracoscopy group was 95.21\u00a0min compared to 137.77\u00a0min in thoracotomy group (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.0001).

The postoperative hospital stay was 8.35\u00a0days (mean) in thoracoscopic group and 18.77\u00a0days in the thoracotomy group (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.0001). The most serious morbidity was wound infection, with three cases (16.66%) in the thoracotomy group and one (7.11%) in the thoracoscopy group.
