description A hydatid cyst is a zoonotic infection which may affect any organ and tissue, particularly the liver and the lung. Primary muscular hydatid cysts comprise less than 0.7-3% of the cases.

In this case report, we present an exceptionally rare case with an unusual localization of a primary hydatid cyst in the left deltoid muscle.
