Hydatid disease caused by Echinococcus Granulosus usually occurs in form of cystic lesions in the livar and the lung. Central nervous system involvement in hydatidosis occurs in 0,9 % to 2, 1 % of cases. Cerebral hydatidosis is a pediatric disease and 93 % of cerebral cysts are found in children under the age of 17 years. lnfestation usually occurs very early in the life and because of slow growth of the cysts it usually takas several years for symptoms to develop. Primary hydatid cysts of the brain are usually single. We couldn't coincide with the occurrence of a primary multiple hydatid cysts of the brain in an adult in the literature before.
