Özet
Aim: The aim of this study was to examine the role of conservative therapy in cavitary lesions secondary to capitonnage suturing in the postoperative period for giant hydatid cyst cases within the context of the literature. Material and Methods: The files of 346 patients who had been operated in our clinic due to a hydatid cyst between 01 May 2010 and 30 June 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. Epicrisis reports and operation notes of 52 cases that had been operated due to a giant hydatid cyst were examined. Files of 7 giant hydatid cyst cases with postoperative cyst cavity were included in the study. Results: Cases were followed up for six months following the medical treatment. Surgical intervention was not performed for any of the seven patients whose treatment was completed, and their cavities closed spontaneously. The length of stay in the hospital was determined as 10-15 days (mean=13.1 days). Mortality and morbidity were not encountered in any of our cases. Discussion: In case of cavity opening in the post-operative period in giant hydatid cyst cases, unless complications such as bronchopleural fistula, pneumothorax, empyema or fluid retention giving air-liquid level inside the cavity occur, it must be assumed that capitonnage sutures were opened. We assume that implementation of infection treatment as the first option before surgery for the closure of the cavity may be more effective for spontaneous recovery of the patients without increasing their risks of mortality and morbidity.
