  • Title: [Infestation of the ductus choledochus with Fasciola hepatica. Study of human Fasciola].
    Author: Angehrn W, Wegmann T.
    Journal: Schweiz Med Wochenschr; 1975 May 31; 105(22):715-8. PubMed ID: 1153989.
    Abstract:
    In a 66-year-old woman with suspected cholecystopathy, cholecystectomy led to the chance finding of the common liver fluke Fasciola hepatica (F.h.) in the common bile duct. Subsequent therapy with Dehydroemetin brought about regression of eosinophilia and of the pathologic immunofluorescent antibody test for F.h. The life cycle of F.h. and the clinical features of human infection are described in detail.
