Abstract

Capillaria hepatica is a very rare zoonotic infestation which primarily infests rodents and is rarely found in humans. The presenting features are fever of unknown origin, hepatomegaly and peripheral eosinophilia. Liver biopsy remains the cornerstone of diagnosis. Treatment of choice is Albendazole and outcome is generally good.
