Abstract: An 11-year-old girl presented with severe right upper hypochondrial
pain, fever, and severe pallor. Parasitological stool examination
using Kato-Katz technique revealed a large number of huge operculated
yellowish brown eggs. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed dilatation
of the common bile duct associated with amoving shadow. Endoscopic retrograde
cholangiopancreatographic sphincterotomy, basketing, ballooning,
and extraction of Fasciola worms from the common bile duct were done.
