Abstract
We report the case of a 76-year old female patient with a hepatic mass after staying in eastern Turkey. There were no indices for malignancy or an infection with Echinococcus or Entamoeba histolytica. Finally we diagnosed a Fascioliasis (liver fluke) and cured the patient successfully.Entities:
