While isolated hydatid cysts in the spleen are rare, they are usually asymptomatic and are frequently discovered incidentally. Treatment options depend on several factors, such as cyst location, size, and number.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case presentation:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We present the case of a 9-year-old child who lives in rural areas. He was suffering from pain in the left flank for 3 months. An ultrasound and CT scan of the abdomen were performed. It was found that there was a solitary hydatid cyst in the spleen, about half the size of the spleen. Surgical intervention was performed and the cyst was completely removed without opening the cyst and with preservation of normal splenic tissue.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In cases of splenic cysts, the spleen must be preserved and the cyst must be removed with caution so as not to rupture it. Therefore, protecting the child from the possibility of hydatid cyst spread and anaphylactic shock.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In conclusion, this article underscores the importance of differential diagnosis of a hydatid cyst in the spleen and taking the necessary preventive measures before and during surgery to avoid the rupture of the cyst.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2024.110232","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,6]],"date-time":"2024-09-06T18:20:59Z","timestamp":1725646859000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Spleen salvation: A successful case of spleen-preserving surgery for hydatid cyst"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"123","author":[{"given":"Shkri","family":"Jaweesh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Al-Sham Private University, Damascus, Syria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marwa","family":"Jaweesh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine University of Aleppo, Syria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hasan","family":"Alokla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Al-Sham Private University, Damascus, Syria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abdullah","family":"Alfandi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Al-Sham Private University, Damascus, Syria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohammad","family":"Omran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Al-Sham Private University, Damascus, Syria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Khaled","family":"Alhomsi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Education Quality and Scientific Research Council, Al-Sham Private University, Damascus, Syria"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"issue":"2","key":"R1-63-20260507","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"169","DOI":"10.1016\/S0377-1237(03)80074-6","article-title":"Primary hydatid cyst of the spleen","volume":"59","author":"Singh,","year":"2003","journal-title":"Med.
