Ocular manifestations of hydatid disease: a case report
The ocular manifestations of systemic hydatid disease are not solely due to the presence of intraocular hydatid cysts; they can also include ocular inflammation in the absence of cysts, as seen in this case. Surgical resection of the large choroidal lesion, combined with steroid treatment, significantly improved the patient's ocular condition.
