      <abstract>
        <p>The aim of this study was to observe efficacy of homoeopathic medicines in cases of 
hydatid cyst in liver. Hydatid cysts are fluid-filled sacs caused by the Echinococcus granulosus 
tapeworm, predominantly affecting the liver. Conventional treatment typically involves surgical 
intervention and antiparasitic medications; however, challenges such as recurrence and patient 
tolerance necessitate exploration of alternative therapies. Homeopathy offers a personalized 
approach that may address the psychosomatic aspects of disease, enhance patient comfort, and 
promote overall well-being. A case of hydatid cyst in liver was reported in our clinic. Patient 
complained about giddiness and fear in the beginning. After CT scan he was diagnosed with 
Hydatid cyst in liver. He complained about pain in right hypogastrium region with aggravation 
from bending double and pressure. Patient is under homoeopathic treatment and is showing 
improvement.</p>
