description INTRODUCTION: Primary hydatid cyst is rarely seen in musculoskeletal system. This paper presents a case of an intramuscular hydatid cyst in gluteal region. CASE OF REPORT: We present the case of a 36-year-old woman affected by pain and a mass in her right gluteal region. Serological tests and radiographies were inconclusive. Ultrasonography showed a 52 mm × 47 mm diameter hypoechoic intramuscular cyst with septations. Computed tomography showed a cystic lesion located between muscle groups. The mass was excised under spinal anesthesia. It was a well-demarcated cystic lesion with 5 cm diameter. Albendazole chemotherapy was prescribed postoperatively. CONCLUSION: Hydatid cysts must be considered in differential diagnosis in patients with cystic masses in musculoskeletal system, especially in patients living in endemic areas.
