Living Fasciola hepatica in biliary tree: a case report.
Here we report a rare case of living Fasciola hepatica in biliary tract. The patient was in acute phase of infection and treated successfully with 10 mg/kg oral triclabendazole after the fluke was extracted using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).
متن کاملAn amino acid substitution in Fasciola hepatica P-glycoprotein from triclabendazole-resistant and triclabendazole-susceptible populations.
Control of fasciolosis is threatened by the development of anthelmintic resistance. Enhanced triclabendazole (TCBZ) efflux by ABC transporters such as P-glycoprotein (Pgp) has been implicated in this process. A putative full length cDNA coding for a Pgp expressed in adult Fasciola hepatica has been constructed and used to design a primer set capable of amplifying a region encoding part of the s...
متن کاملFasciola hepatica as a cause of jaundice after chewing khat: a case report.
Fasciola hepatica is a worldwide distributed zoonotic trematode incidentally infecting humans. Although often symptomatic, fascioliasis can cause a wide spectrum of disease. The diagnosis can be established by stool examination detecting ova of the parasite, although serological testing has a higher sensitivity and specificity in the acute phase of disease. This case presents a 24-year-old Soma...
متن کاملABC transporters of Fasciola hepatica as putative drug targets
Background The liver fluke Fasciola hepatica is one of the most important parasites affecting animal health all over the world, causing the so called liver fluke disease (fascioliosis). Although infections of humans are rather rare in most western countries, several million people worldwide are infected by this trematode. Beside its threat to humans the infection of animal stock leads to large ...
متن کاملSevere iron deficiency anemia and marked eosinophilia in adolescent girls with the diagnosis of human fascioliasis.
Human fascioliasis (HF), caused by the common liver fluke Fasciola hepatica, is an endemic infection in many parts of tropical countries. HF can also be seen in some of the non-tropical countries. This report describes two girls with severe iron deficiency anemia and eosinophilia, who were diagnosed as HF. The infection was successfully eliminated with the administration of triclabendazole. No ...
متن کاملLack of reversion in triclabendazole-resistant Fasciola hepatica.
RESISTANCE to triclabendazole in field isolates of the liver fluke Fasciola hepatica in sheep was described for the first time by Overend and Bowen (1995) in Australia. In Europe, resistance of F hepatica in sheep to triclabendazole has been reported in Ireland (Lane 1998), Scotland (Mitchell and others 1998), Wales (Thomas and others 2000) and the Netherlands (Moll and others 2000). On the Dut...
