Q

fasciola life cycel
and phases of infection

A

immature eggs shed
eggs >miracidia
miracidia invades snails
snails made and released in cercaia. encysts on aquatic vegetation as metacercaia
-mamals injest the metacercaia**
-metacercaia become adult flukes in the mammal

acute phase: takes 2 -4 months for migration of larvae to liver with generalized flu sx

latent phase is asymptomatic while the parasite matures

chronic phase: biliary colic, no fatty foods, obstructive jaundice, pruitis
