The fistulization of a hepatic hydatid cyst to the duodenum is an extremely rare case demonstrated in computed tomography and confirmed surgically. We reported a case of 56 years-old woman representing this unusual complication.We show, through this work, the importance of radiological signs that can help to make the diagnosis before surgery.
