Human fascioliasis in South Africa.

J Black1, N Ntusi, P Stead, B Mayosi, M Mendelson.   

Abstract

Human fascioliasis has the widest latitudinal, longitudinal and altitudinal distribution of any vector-borne disease, yet only 3 cases have been reported from South Africa, the last in 1964. We report 2 cases from the same geographic area associated with local consumption of watercress, suggesting an endemic focus.
