Human fascioliasis in South Africa
1Division of Infectious Diseases and HIV Medicine, Department of Medicine, Groote Schuur Hospital and the University of Cape Town, South Africa. docjohnblack@gmail.com.
Abstract:
Human fascioliasis has the widest latitudinal, longitudinal and altitudinal distribution of any vector-borne disease, yet only 3 cases have been reported from South Africa, the last in 1964. We report 2 cases from the same geographic area associated with local consumption of watercress, suggesting an endemic focus.
