Core Tip This manuscript presents a case of hepatic eosinophilic pseudotumor (HEPT) misdiagnosed as intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, later confirmed to be caused by Fasciola hepatica infection. HEPT, a rare benign condition characterized by dense eosinophilic infiltration, mimics malignant hepatic tumors, posing significant diagnostic challenges. The report emphasizes the importance of histopathological and serological analyses in differentiating HEPT from malignancies, especially in endemic regions. The case demonstrated the efficacy of triclabendazole in resolving HEPT secondary to parasitic infection, highlighting the need for awareness of parasitic causes in atypical hepatic lesions.
