Abstract
This article presents magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of a patient affected
with disseminated hydatid disease associated with a uniloculated cyst lodged in the
infratemporal fossa. The lesion mainly caused buccal prominence, dysphonia, and exophthalmos.
To the author's knowledge, this is the first reported instance of a hydatid cyst in
the infratemporal fossa demonstrated with MRI.
