Abstract
The omission of a foreign body during a surgical procedure remains the dread of the surgical team whose vigilance can be disturbed by several factors dominated by emergency procedures, intraoperative bleeding, obesity, unexpected change of procedure or the placement of an operative field to protect the intestinal loops during parietal closure. Inside the peritoneum, the textiloma initiates an inflammatory reaction of the exudative type with local suppuration. We report the case of a patient operated on for a hydatid cyst of the liver admitted to the department for a recurrence of a peritoneal hydatid cyst. During exploration we found a textiloma forgotten during the previous operation.
