We report a case of pulmonary paragonimiasis in the childhood causing recurrent haemoptysis and pneumonia. The purpose of this study was to describe the radiological manifestations of pulmonary paragonimiasis on chest X-rays and CT-Scans-Peripheral localized, multisegmental infiltration with pleural thickening of lesion, Focal and infiltrative shadows (10-15mm nodules + masslike consolidation). Bollous inflation (excentric thickening of Cyst wall). CT-scans provide more specific information
