Echinococcosis, also known as hydatid cyst, is a parasitic condition brought on by the larval form of the genus Echinococcus. In sheep-raising regions, particularly the Mediterranean nations, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, South America, Australia, and New Zealand, the disease is endemic. The spread of this disease has reached every continent currently as a result of rising migration and travel. Hydatid cysts have sporadically been noted in visitors to Korea or workers from endemic regions. It has been revealed how to examine hydatid cysts using fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). To our knowledge, Korea hasn't previously received a report on the aspiration cytologic characteristics of hepatic hydatid cysts.

An interdisciplinary, multistep technique is used to diagnose a suspicious soft tissue or bone tumour that includes the clinical picture and history, radiographic appearance, and morphological study of cytological or histological material. The diagnosis of bone and soft tissue neoplasms might be difficult for pathologists in practise. Both soft tissue and bone tumours are diverse collections of countable unique tumour entities. Sarcoma incidence is 4.7/100,000 year, making up about 1% of all human malignancies, while the vast majority of soft tissue and bone neoplasms are benign.
