The surgical procedure detailed in this case report focuses on the treatment of a large cardiac hydatid cyst located in the intraventricular septum. The surgical intervention comprised a comprehensive approach involving a median sternotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass. A localized mass below the tricuspid valve at the basal region of the interventricular septum was revealed. The hydatid cyst was punctured, the contents were aspirated and the cyst membrane was removed. The cyst cavity was closed by plicating it with Prolene sutures and eliminating the created space. Intraoperative transoesophageal echocardiography confirmed normal cardiac function. Regular follow-ups, with a three-month course of albendazole, showed no recurrence or issues.
