Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Parasitology
  • Zoonotic Diseases

Background:

  • Fascioliasis hepatica, caused by the liver fluke Fasciola hepatica, is a significant parasitic disease affecting ruminants and humans.
  • The zoonotic transmission and clinical presentation in humans, particularly acute cases, require careful diagnostic consideration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the diagnosis and treatment of an acute human Fasciola hepatica infection.
  • To offer insights for improved clinical diagnosis and management of fascioliasis hepatica, aiming to reduce misdiagnosis and mistreatment.

Main Methods:

  • Case report of a patient presenting with acute abdominal distension and jaundice.
  • Review of diagnostic procedures and therapeutic interventions for acute fascioliasis hepatica.

Main Results:

  • Successful diagnosis and treatment of an acute case of human fascioliasis hepatica.
  • The case highlights key clinical signs and diagnostic challenges associated with acute fascioliasis.

Conclusions:

  • Acute fascioliasis hepatica requires prompt recognition and appropriate treatment.
  • Clinical vigilance and understanding of parasitic zoonoses are crucial for effective patient management.
