Q

clonorchiasis

life cycle

A

they live in the bile duct and liver of mammals and release eggs
eggs ingested by snails and develop into cercaria-> penetrate fish

develop into metacercaria and we eat the fish

goes to intestine and bile

Q

clonorchiasis

path

A

worms tunnel LIVER-> causing hyperplasia of epithelium
can also cause toxic irritation of liver and bile duct->- and thickening of bile duct walls -> causing fibrous thickening* obstruction or biliary cirrhosis

Q

schistosomiasis

life cycle

A

blood vessels
eggs released into blood stream and migrate to intestinal tract / urinary bladder

miracidia hatch in waterways and penetrate snails

in snails they develop into cercaria-> and are released into water back to humans (CERCARIA ARE THE INFECTIOUS FORM)

In humans after skin penetration they develop into schistosomula that enter the blood stream
