Key Points

This research aims to explore the uncommon anatomical locations of primary hydatid cysts and their clinical implications.
Conducted a retrospective observational study at a single-center
Analyzed cases of primary hydatid cysts with atypical presentations
Evaluated the clinical features and surgical outcomes associated with these cases
Identified several rare locations for primary hydatid cysts
Noted various non-specific clinical features linked to these atypical presentations
