It is considered one of the 17 neglected parasitic tropical diseases, among cysticercosis and soil transmitted helminthiases. CH is caused by the larval stage of<jats:italic>Echinococcus granulosus<\/jats:italic>, a tapeworm that usually infects dogs and other carnivorous animals as definitive hosts and herbivorous animals and rarely humans as intermediate hosts. Main primary localizations are the liver and the lung. In less than 3% they can primarily be present in the spleen. Treatment is mainly surgical, in some cases resulting in reoccurrence. In this paper we present the case of a male 55 years old patient who underwent a surgical intervention on his spleen for a solitary hydatid cyst as primary localization. Fifteen years after the operation the patient presented macroscopic haematuria; routine laboratory findings presented soft eosinophilia, 5%, without any other modification. There was found no palpable tumour in the pelvis by rectal examination. Abdominal ultrasound investigation revealed a 2\u00d71 cm formation in the urinary bladder at the base of the left bladder-wall and a retrovesical, inhomogeneous 10\u00d710 cm tumour with multiple septa and transonic zones. Computed tomography (CT) scan strongly suggested the presence of a bladder tumour and a hydatid cyst. The symptoms caused by the bladder tumour revealed the co-existing non-symptomatic retrovesical secondary CH, which is a rare complication of splenic<jats:italic>Echinococcus granulosus<\/jats:italic>infection. Close follow-up and a proper pre- and postoperative anti-parasitic medication of the patient could have prevented reoccurrence of CH.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1556\/amicr.62.2015.1.2","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,4,1]],"date-time":"2015-04-01T12:55:11Z","timestamp":1427892911000},"page":"21-27","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1556\/policypage.crossmark.crossref.1","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Retrovesical hydatidosis associated with urinary tract pathology \u2014 Case report"],"prefix":"10.1556","volume":"62","author":[{"given":"Enik\u0151","family":"Barab\u00e1s-Hajdu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"1 University of Medicine and Pharmacy Department of Microbiology, Pharmacology and Clinical Pharmacy Targu-Mures Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Adrian","family":"Maier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"2 University of Medicine and Pharmacy Department of Urology Targu-Mures Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Florin","family":"Coro\u015f","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"3 University of Medicine and Pharmacy Department of General Surgery Targu-Mures Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Orsolya","family":"M\u00e1rtha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"2 University of Medicine and Pharmacy Department of Urology Targu-Mures Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"425","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"595","DOI":"10.1128\/CMR.15.4.595-612.2002","article-title":"History of human parasitology","volume":"15","author":"Cox F.E.G.","year":"2002","journal-title":"Clin Microbiol Rev"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"435","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2012.12.019","article-title":"Giant solitary cyst of spleen","volume":"4","author":"Pukar M.M.","year":"2013","journal-title":"Int J of Surgery Case Rep"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"13","DOI":"10.1186\/1741-7015-11-13","article-title":"Recent advances in the diagnosis and treatment of bladder cancer","volume":"11","author":"Cheung G.","year":"2013","journal-title":"BMC Med"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"57","DOI":"10.1093\/jjco\/hyq128","article-title":"Bladder cancer working group report","volume":"40","author":"Kakehi Y.","year":"2010","journal-title":"Jpn J Clin Oncol"},{"key":"5","first-page":"651","article-title":"The role of urine markers, white light cystoscopy and fluorescence cystoscopy in recurrence, progression and follow-up of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer","volume":"32","author":"Karaoglu I.","year":"2014","journal-title":"World J Urol"},{"key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"234","DOI":"10.1016\/j.eururo.2012.07.033","article-title":"Epidemiology and risk factors of urothelial bladder cancer","volume":"63","author":"Burger M.","year":"2013","journal-title":"European Urology"},{"key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"59","DOI":"10.4103\/0970-1591.109987","article-title":"Laparoscopic Palanivelu-hydatid-system aided management of retrovesical hydatid cyst","volume":"29","author":"Subramaniam B.","year":"2013","journal-title":"Indian J Urol"},{"key":"8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"787","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-5347(01)65041-9","article-title":"Renal echinococcosis: Clinical study of 34 cases","volume":"157","author":"Angulo J.C.","year":"1997","journal-title":"J Urol"},{"key":"9","unstructured":"http:\/\/www.who.int\/neglected_diseases\/diseases\/en\/"},{"key":"10","first-page":"2","article-title":"Urinary retention: Unusual presentation of hydatid cyst.
