description The hydatid cyst is a parasitic pathology which is endemic in Tunisia and presents a public health problem.Hydatid cysts located in the retroperitoneum, especially around or in the kidney, are rare and only represent 5% of visceral locations. The kidney is the most commonly affected organ of the urinary tract.The psoas muscle is an uncommon location and not less than 70 cases have been cited.
