This study describes a 42-year-old male born in Tunisia, who presented with vertebral hydatidosis which was initially misdiagnosed as Pott's disease. The correct diagnosis was finally made utilizing CT and MRI imaging and confirmation of the diagnosis was made possible by molecular and immunochemical characterization of the content of vertebral cyst fluid.
