Core Tip |
Human fascioliasis is caused by drinking water or freshwater plants (watercress etc) contaminated with metacercariae. Fascioliasis may remain asymptomatic for many years and are usually detected incidentally during radiological examinations for other reasons. Radiologically, fascioliasis can be confused with many other benign and malignant hepatobiliary diseases. One of the most common malignant liver diseases mimicking fascioliasis include colon cancer liver metastasis. We aimed to present the diagnosis and overtreatment process of a case of fascioliasis radiologically mimicking colon cancer liver metastasis. |
