This document discusses the laparoscopic management of hydatid cysts of the liver. It details the experience of operating on 11 patients with hepatic hydatid cysts laparoscopically. Key points include: cysts were located in the right or left hepatic lobe and ranged in size from 4.5 to 18 cm. The cysts were treated laparoscopically using techniques to prevent spillage and incorporating omentum into the cyst cavity after removal. There were no immediate or long-term complications observed in patients with the longest follow up of over 8 years. The laparoscopic approach provided the benefits of minimally invasive surgery for these patients.
