Hepatic hydatid cysts in pediatric patients present unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to their rapid growth and potential to mimic other pathologies. This case highlights the importance of considering hydatid disease in the differential diagnosis of hepatic cysts, especially in children from endemic regions. The unusual rapid growth rate observed in pediatric cases, influenced by age-related immune and tissue dynamics, underscores the need for heightened vigilance even when prior imaging appears normal. Timely recognition and intervention are crucial to preventing complications such as cyst rupture, secondary infection, and compression of adjacent organs. This case also illustrates the utility of serological and radiological tools in confirming the diagnosis and the role of surgical and pharmacological therapies in ensuring favorable outcomes. Clinicians must remain alert to atypical presentations, ensuring comprehensive evaluation and prompt treatment to improve prognosis and reduce the burden of complications associated with hydatid disease.
