MRI findings of hepatobiliairy fascioliasis

Hepatobiliary fascioliasis is an uncommon disease. Depending on the stage of the disease it can present with a wide variability of clinical symptoms. Knowledge of the specific radiological findings of the disease is crucial to shorten the time to final diagnosis, which is usually long. We report a case of hepatobiliary fascioliasis in a 26-year-old woman with intermittent abdominal discomfort showing non specific findings at computed tomography and ultrasound. A hypothesis of an infectious disorder was formulated based on MRI findings and a recent history of travelling. Final diagnosis was confirmed by subsequent serology testing.
