摘要
Fasciola hepatica (FH) is a liver fluke that may mimic many other diseases, potentially leading to misdiagnosis. A 25-year-old patient who was admitted to our clinic with hepatic lesions and diagnosed with fascioliasis is presented in this report. Difficulties in the diagnosis of FH infestation and the role of radiological evaluation are emphasized. We suggest that FH infestation should be taken into consideration in patients being evaluated for hepatic mass and elevated liver enzymes, especially if accompanied by eosinophilia, or if the patient is known to have visited an endemic region.
