We report the case of a lady in her 50s who presented to a hospital in northwest Syria with a large swelling in the right gluteal region. This was diagnosed as a gluteal abscess, and an incision and drainage were performed. Intraoperatively, a hydatid cyst germinal membrane was noted. She had the required imaging to exclude other cysts, which revealed a liver hydatid cyst of 7.5\u2009cm, which was treated with PAIR (puncture, aspiration, injection, and re-aspiration) and albendazole. The residual wound was closed using a manual vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) pump for seven days. A key lesson is that a hydatid cyst in the gluteal muscles, though rare, should be considered in the differential diagnosis. We also show that the innovative use of a manual VAC pump can be used to support closure of large hydatid cyst cavities in muscles.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0044-1788773","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,25]],"date-time":"2024-09-25T23:17:51Z","timestamp":1727306271000},"page":"179-181","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Treatment of a Large Gluteal Hydatid Cyst in Syria Using a Manual Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Device (PragmaVAC)"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-6411-3139","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"M.","family":"Netfagi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Rahma Darkoush Hospital, Darkoush, Syria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"H.","family":"Alshaer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pragmatic Innovation Inc, Mississauga-Toronto, Ontario, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Abbara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Imperial College, London, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Hariri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Education, Syrian Board of Medical Specialties, Gaziantep, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,25]]},"reference":[{"issue":"02","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"117","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijsu.2010.10.009","article-title":"Primary subcutaneous hydatid cysts: a review of 22 cases","volume":"9","author":"C Kayaalp","year":"2011","journal-title":"Int J Surg"},{"issue":"02","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"137","DOI":"10.1179\/13648590678560","article-title":"Hydatid cysts with unusual localizations: diagnostic and treatment dilemmas for surgeons","volume":"100","author":"M Yildirim","year":"2006","journal-title":"Ann Trop Med Parasitol"},{"issue":"01","key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"23","DOI":"10.9738\/CC85.1","article-title":"Unusual location of hydatid cysts: a case report and literature review","volume":"97","author":"Y Yagmur","year":"2012","journal-title":"Int Surg"},{"issue":"02","key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"237","DOI":"10.1016\/S0001-706X(02)00271-1","article-title":"Hydatid cyst of the liver-criteria for the selection of appropriate treatment","volume":"85","author":"A Menezes da Silva","year":"2003","journal-title":"Acta Trop"},{"issue":"03","key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"795","DOI":"10.1148\/radiographics.20.3.g00ma06795","article-title":"Hydatid disease: radiologic and pathologic features and complications","volume":"20","author":"I Pedrosa","year":"2000","journal-title":"Radiogrphics"},{"issue":"07","key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"301","DOI":"10.1067\/j.cpsurg.2014.04.001","article-title":"Effect of negative pressure wound therapy on wound healing","volume":"51","author":"C Huang","year":"2014","journal-title":"Curr Probl Surg"},{"issue":"12","key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2946","DOI":"10.1007\/s00268-022-06713-8","article-title":"Validation of a manual negative pressure wound therapy device (PragmaVAC) for acute and chronic wounds: a prospective, randomized, controlled trial","volume":"46","author":"M Hariri","year":"2022","journal-title":"World J Surg"}],"container-title":["Avicenna Journal of Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0044-1788773.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,29]],"date-time":"2024-11-29T00:49:42Z","timestamp":1732841382000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0044-1788773"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2024,7]]},"references-count":7,"journal-issue":{"issue":"03","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,21]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2024,7]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0044-1788773","archive":["Portico","CLOCKSS"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["2231-0770","2249-4464"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"2231-0770"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2249-4464"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2024,7]]}}}
