Rupture and secondary infection are common complications of hydatid cyst in the liver. Ultrasound and CT findings are reported in a case of hydatid cyst which has ruptured directly into the left colon. Rupture of hydatid cyst into a hollow viscus is extremely rare. CT demonstrated partial drainage of the cyst contents with the creation of an air-fluid level.
