Puncturing a hydatid cyst is forbidden due to the risk of anaphylactic shock and the spread of infection. The cyst contains hydatid fluid and potentially infectious scolices, which can leak into the bloodstream or surrounding tissues if punctured, leading to secondary cyst formation or severe allergic reactions. Additionally, improper handling can result in contamination, complicating treatment and increasing the risk of complications. Therefore, surgical removal or medical management is preferred.
