The hydatid cyst with double location (lung and liver) is a challenge for the thoraco-abdominal border surgery mainly due to the difficulty of choosing the approach (thoracotomy and laparotomy versus thoracotomy and phrenotomy). We present a case of hydatid cyst with dual location (right lung and left hepatic lobe) resolved by right thoracotomy and right transphrenic approach.
