Abstract
Preoperative assessment of an echinococcal liver cyst with surrounding tissue structures is extremely important for planning the course of surgical intervention. The paper presents the first experience of treating a patient with a parasitic cyst using three-dimensional reconstruction of the liver affected by echinococcus at the preoperative stage. The use of this approach made it possible to avoid the development of intraoperative complications and get a good treatment result.
