Radical surgery for liver hydatid cysts has receivedincreasing interest over the last two decades. Its proponentssuggest that, whenever possible, radical methods should bethe mainstay of surgical treatment. They claim that theadvantages of radical surgery are lower rates of early andlate complications. Despite this trend, it can simply be saidthat there is no clear evidence yet that radical surgery haslower early or late complication rates. There is only onerandomized controlled trial that compares radical andconservative methods [1], and this study has severaldrawbacks that are open to discussion.
