Abstract:
On October 26,2022,Hunan Armed Police Corps Hospital admitted a 25-year-old male patient with＂ hepatic sparganosis＂.The patient was admitted to the hospital for＂ persistent pain in the upper abdomen for 1 day＂,and described having swallowed river water while swimming a month prior.Physical examination revealed tenderness and rebound pain in the right lower abdomen,and percussion pain in the liver area.A full-panel antibody test for parasites revealed positivity for schizocephala-specific IgG.Combined imaging results,serum laboratory examination and exposure history,a diagnosis of ＂hepatic sparganosis＂ was supported.Twenty days after anti-infection and whole-body deworming treatment,liver lesions observed by abdominal enhanced CT were significantly reduced,routine blood panel was recovery,and the patient's symptoms completely disappeared.
