We describe the case of a 28-year-old man from Greece with Opistorchis felineus infestation. The patient presented with intense abdominal pain, bilious emesis and eosinophilia. He probably acquired the infection overseas, since he was a commercial airline pilot who used to fly to endemic areas and to consume raw or undercooked fish. He was successfully treated with praziquantel administered in divided doses over a single day. Opisthorchiasis is common to eastern Europe and areas of the former Soviet Union, but extremely rare in Greece. Medical personnel should be cognizant of this parasitic infection, since world travel can spread it to areas of the world unaccustomed to it.
我们描述了一名来自希腊的28岁男性感染猫后睾吸虫的病例。患者出现剧烈腹痛、胆汁性呕吐和嗜酸性粒细胞增多。他可能是在海外感染的，因为他是一名商业航空公司飞行员，过去常飞往流行地区并食用生鱼或未煮熟的鱼。他通过在一天内分剂量服用吡喹酮成功治愈。后睾吸虫病在东欧和前苏联地区很常见，但在希腊极为罕见。医务人员应认识到这种寄生虫感染，因为全球旅行可能会将其传播到不习惯这种感染的地区。
