A 65-year-old male recently presented with right upper quadrant pain and abnormal liver function tests. a Abdominal ultrasound demonstrates lobulated, centrally cystic mass (arrows) within the right liver lobe. The mass was mostly hyperechoic in echotexture. b Axial plane postcontrast CT demonstrated a large, hypoattenuating, centrally cystic/necrotic liver mass (arrows) with scattered calcifications. Percutaneous biopsy was performed to exclude cholangiocellular cancer. Final diagnosis was alveolar hydatid cyst. The patient underwent right hepatectomy
