AbstractThe hydatid disease is common and remains endemic in Morocco. The treatment relies mainly on surgery. This may be accompanied by rare but serious complications that can certainly be life-threatening. Allergic reactions can manifest as anaphylactic shock which is characterized by its brutal onset and its severity. We stress through the pediatric case reported the exceptional occurrence of anaphylactic shock during surgery and the need for its early recognition in order to establish effective treatment. Prevention relies mainly on surgical precautions taken to avoid seeding of the abdominal cavity.Copyright © 2011 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
