What is a capittonage in the treatment of hydatid cyst?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Capittonage is the surgical closure of a cyst cavity. Omentoplasty or external drainage are other surgical options for treatment of hydatid cysts. Hydatid disease of the liver is caused by a echinococcus tapeworm.
