Evidence of Haplorchis taichui infection as pathogenic parasite: Three case reports

Haplorchis taichui is the minute intestinal fluke which parasitizes the small intestine of humans and other mammals. We present the pathology in the small intestine of 3 human cases caused by H. taichui. Microscopic examination revealed mucosal ulceration, mucosal and submucosal haemorrhages, fusion...
