چکیده

fascioliasis is a worldwide but unevenly distributed zoonosis caused by the trematode fasciola hepatica that infects do­mesti­cated herbivores. fasciolosis also occurs accidentally in humans by ingestion of metacercaria-laden freshwater or water plants. human infections are common in developing countries and are not rare in europe. the clinical course has been con­ventionally described in two phases: an acute phase of hepatic parenchymal invasion of an immature worm larva (parenchy­mal phase) and a stationary phase after residence in the bile duct and production of eggs (ductal phase). we report a 34 years old woman from ilam, western iran with hepatic disorder, ruq pain, and jaundice. the diagnosis was made by sonography, ct scan and serologic studies. serologic exam (elisa) was positive & ct findings were compatible with fascio­liasis.
