Q

Pathology
A 45-year-old farmer from a rural area presents to the clinic with complaints of intermittent fever, abdominal pain, and fatigue. Laboratory tests reveal elevated liver enzymes and eosinophilia. Imaging studies show dilated bile ducts with areas of fibrosis. Upon further history-taking, the patient reports frequent consumption of raw watercress from nearby streams.

During examination, you notice symptoms indicative of biliary inflammation. A biopsy of the liver reveals necrotic lesions and fibrosis around the bile ducts. Pathology findings also suggest the presence of migrating larvae causing abscesses in ectopic foci.

Q

A 52-year-old woman presents to the emergency department with complaints of severe right upper quadrant pain, fever, and chills. She describes episodic colic pain and persistent nausea over the past two weeks. Physical examination reveals hepatomegaly and tenderness in the right upper quadrant.

Laboratory tests show elevated bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, and white blood cell count, consistent with biliary obstruction and inflammation. Imaging studies reveal dilated bile ducts and evidence of cholelithiasis. Further questioning reveals the patient recently traveled to a rural area and consumed undercooked freshwater fish.

Q

Life cycle of liver fluke

Metacercariae excyst in the duodenum

3: migrating larvae migrate through intestinal wall, to body cavity, Glisson’s capsule, liver, to the Proximal biliary passages, the habitat

4: migrating larvae usually enter the common bile duct, through the ampulla of Vater, to the Distal biliary passages, the habitat

option: 3 liver flukes

A
  1. F. hepatica
  2. C. sinensis and O. felineus
24
Q

Life cycle of liver fluke

Adult produces eggs & discharged in the bile duct and evacuated with stool in a body of water
1. Immature eggs develop in the water & hatch, miracidium escape from the egg
2. Eggs hatch only after ingestion by first intermediate host

  • Miracidium developed in the 1st IH (snail) until they become cercariae
  • Cercariae escape from the 1st IH and swim in the water until they come in contact with the 2nd IH
  • Cercariae encyst in the 2nd IH and become metacercariae, the infective stage

option: 3 liver flukes

A
  1. F. hepatica
