Özet

Hydatid cyst of the posterior fossa is very rare. In this report we present a 22-year-old female who had primary multiple hydatid cysts localizing in the petroclival areas. The report is noteworthy because of the unusual location, and the cranial and spinal dissemination of cysts despite previous treatment.
