Fasciola Hepatica and Imaging Findings

Yazarlar

Özet

Although Fasciola hepatica is seen epidemically, its frequency is increasing outside these countries. Since radiologic imaging findings show similar features with many diseases, the diagnosis is delayed. In this article, we aimed to describe the radiologic findings of fasciola hepatica and to increase awareness.

Fasiola hepatika epidemik olarak görülmesine rağmen bu ülkeler dışında da sıklığı giderek artmaktadır. Radyolojik görüntüleme bulguları birçok hastalık ile benzer özellikler gösterdiğinden tanıda geçikmeler olmaktadır. Bu yazımızda fasiola hepatikaya ait radyolojik bulguları tanımlamayı ve farkındalığı arttırmayı amaçladık.
