We report 3 cases of fascioliasis imported to Norway: a 24-y-old male Vietnamese immigrant and a 51-y-old female Vietnamese immigrant with acute fascioliasis, and a 2-y-old male Ethiopian adoptee with chronic fascioliasis. Diagnosis was confirmed by detection of specific antibodies to Fasciola hepatica in the 2 first cases and by demonstration of Fasciola hepatica eggs in stool samples in the latter case. Treatment with oral triclabendazole led to prompt cure in all 3 patients. Imported fascioliasis is rarely reported but should be suspected in patients with a travel history to endemic areas, abdominal symptoms and hypereosinophilia of the blood.
我们报告了3例输入挪威的肝片吸虫病病例:1例24岁的越南男性移民和1例51岁的越南女性移民患有急性肝片吸虫病,还有1例2岁的埃塞俄比亚男童被收养者患有慢性肝片吸虫病。前2例通过检测针对肝片吸虫的特异性抗体确诊,后1例通过粪便样本中发现肝片吸虫卵确诊。3例患者口服三氯苯达唑治疗后均迅速痊愈。输入性肝片吸虫病鲜有报道,但对于有疫区旅行史、腹部症状和血液嗜酸性粒细胞增多的患者应怀疑此病。
