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 a moving shadow. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatographic sphincterotomy, basketing, ballooning, and extraction of Fasciola worms from the common bile duct were done.
