🪱 FASCIOLIASIS (LIVER FLUKE DISEASE)
Fascioliasis is a parasitic disease caused by Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica, commonly affecting cattle, sheep and goats.

Transmission:
Animals become infected by ingesting infective metacercariae attached to aquatic vegetation or in contaminated water. Freshwater snails serve as intermediate hosts.

Pathogenesis:
Immature flukes migrate through the liver parenchyma, causing haemorrhage, inflammation and tissue damage. Adult flukes establish themselves in the bile ducts, causing cholangitis and biliary damage.

Clinical signs:
✓. Anaemia and progressive weight loss.
✓. Anorexia and weakness.
✓. Submandibular oedema (not often)
✓. Reduced milk production.
✓. Abdominal discomfort.
✓. Icterus in some cases.

Diagnosis:
Faecal sedimentation, serology, clinical examination and postmortem identification of liver flukes.

Prevention:
Strategic parasite control, management of snail habitats and avoiding contaminated grazing areas.

🔬 Clinical pearl: A negative faecal sedimentation test does not rule out acute fascioliasis because immature flukes do not produce eggs.
