Abstract : Introduction and Significance: Hydatid cyst is a parasitic infection, commonly affects liver folloed by lung and other peritoneal organs. They may not be diagnosed early because they remain asymptomatic at small sizes and reach large sizes at the time of diagnosis. In our case patient have large hydatid cyst in left upper quadrant abutting to mid pole of spleen. Patient also have bening fibroadenoma and cervico vaginal cyst, undervent surgical procedure of diaphragmatic muscle stripping with hydatid cyst with splenectomy with NDVH with cervico vaginal cystectomy.  Case Presentation: We report the case of a 47-year-old female who have history of abdominal pain along with abdominal fullness since 5 month. Patient also complain of constipation and weight loss. Diagnosis was confirmed by ultrasonography and CECT abdo + pelvis.  Clinical Discussion: Most patient remain asymptomatic in case of hydatid cyst though it may leads rupture of hydatid cyst and sever anaphylactic reaction. surgical intervention is the definitive treatment some may undergo medical management. There are different method of surgical intervention.  Conclusion: Echinococcus granulosus can lead to cystic lesions in various parts of the body. Proper diagnostic procedures are essential for accurate identification and for determining the appropriate treatment, which is primarily surgical.
