Hydatid disease is a zoonotic disease endemic in Eastern Europe, being highly prevalent in Romania. There are some links between echinococcosis and cancer, but the true nature of the relationship between these diseases remains to be established. We present the case of a 49-year-old male with hepatic echinococcosis and concomitant hepatic metastases of a previously undiagnosed pancreatic cancer.
