We report a case in a patient aged 28 admitted with haemoptysis and dyspnoea. The chest x-ray showed multiple disseminated hydatid cysts throughout the lung fields. Computerized tomography and an abdominal echo found a hydatid cyst of the liver in contact with inferior vena cava which was probably responsible for the secondary pulmonary dissemination. Subsequently there was a multiplication of the lesions with rupture and infection of several cysts. After two years the disease progressed into chronic respiratory failure with the appearance of chronic cor pulmonale. The respiratory state rapidly worsened with several episodes of cardiorespiratory failure. Death occurred six months after the appearance of CPC.
