Frequent sites of bony involvement are vertebrae, pelvic bones, upper end of long bones e.g. humerus, femur and tibia.We report a case of 41-year old female with primary Hydatid cyst of the entire right femur. Patient complaint of severe pain and was non ambulatory since the last 2 months.Here, single staged Total Right Femur Replacement was done under General Anaesthesia. Patient was discharged after 6 days of hospital stay in a stable condition where physical rehabilitation was initiated after day one of the surgery, progressing to aided walking, standing and active lower limb exercises.Involvement of the entire femur was a challenging case. There is no consensus/gold standard treatment of severe cases.
