Biliary tract disease due to Fasciola hepatica: report of a case.

We report a case of a 23 year old woman who presented with symptoms of biliary tract disease to our University Hospital in Bayamón, Puerto Rico. A diagnosis of chronic cholelithiasis was made and the patient was taken to surgery. An adult Fasciola hepatica was recovered from the common bile duct. We review the pathobiology of this uncommon zoonosis.
