Fascioliasis hepática que simularon tumores hepáticos

Two cases of hepatic fascioliasis which simulated hepatic tumors are presented: Patient 1. (42-year-old woman), presented pain in the epigastric and right hypochondrium. US, CAT and MNR suggested a cholangiocarcinoma. She was operated on by practicing hepatic segmentectomy, cholecystectomy and closi...
