Abstract

The article describes a clinical case of a breakthrough of an echinococcal mediastinal cyst in the thorac-ic aorta and an embolism of the femoral artery. The issues of differential diagnosis and therapeutic tactics are considered. The effectiveness of the use of minimally invasive endovascular methods is highlighted. The need for a multidisciplinary approach and subsequent anthelmintic therapy is shown.
