Pulmonary hydatid disease is not serious under normal circumstances when the cyst is not ruptured and treated in time.

Is pulmonary hydatid disease serious?

Pulmonary hydatid disease is also called pulmonary hydatid disease. It is caused by the development of hydatid cysts after the larvae of Echinococcus granulosus and Echinococcus multilocularis invade the lungs. There are no obvious symptoms in the early stage. When the cyst grows up, it will cause cough, hemoptysis, chest pain and other symptoms. When the cyst is not ruptured, it can be cured by medicine and surgery in time, so it is not serious. If the patient is not treated in time, the cyst increases and ruptures, which can cause suffocation, sudden death and other situations, which is easy to endanger the patient's life, so it is more serious.
