The trematode Clonorchis sinensis (Chinese or oriental liver fluke) is an important foodborne pathogen and cause of liver disease in Asia. This appears to be the only species in the genus involved in human infection. Life Cycl Clonorchiasis, or Chinese liver fluke disease, is caused by infection with Clonorchis sinensis. Adult C. sinensis flukes may measure up to 20 mm x 5 mm. Epidemiolog Clonorchiasis, or Chinese liver fluke disease, is a foodborne trematodiase infection caused by trematode worms (also called flukes). It is caused by infection with Clonorchis sinensis. Adult C. sinensis flukes may measure up to 20 mm x 5 mm Clonorchis is a liver fluke parasite that humans can get by eating raw or undercooked fish, crabs, or crayfish from areas where the parasite is found. Found across parts of Asia, Clonorchis is also known as the Chinese or oriental liver fluke. Liver flukes infect the liver, gallbladder, and bile duct in humans
Clonorchiasis is infection with the liver fluke Clonorchis sinensis. Infection is usually acquired by eating undercooked freshwater fish. Symptoms include fever, chills, epigastric pain, tender hepatomegaly, diarrhea, and mild jaundice. Diagnosis is by identifying eggs in the feces or duodenal contents Liver infected with Clonorchis sinensis causing cholangiocarcinoma. C. sinensis and Opisthorchis viverrini are associated with a 5 to 15 times increased risk of cholangiocarcinoma. This is a major public health issue in some areas such as north-east Thailand where cholangiocarcinoma is one of the leading causes of death Clonorchis sinensis, the Chinese liver fluke, is a liver fluke belonging to the class Trematoda, phylum Platyhelminthes. It infects fish-eating mammals, including humans. In humans, it infects the common bile duct and gall bladder, feeding on bile. It was discovered by British physician James McConnell at the Medical College Hospital in Calcutta (Kolkata) in 1874 Clonorchiasis is an infection with a liver fluke parasite Clonorchis sinensis that infect humans due to eating raw or undercooked fish, crabs, or crayfish from areas where the Clonorchis sinensis parasite is found 1). Clonorchis is found mainly in Korea, China, Taiwan, Northern Vietnam, Japan, and Asian Russia Clonorchis sinensisis one of the most common causes of trematodiasis that is caused by the ingestion of raw fish contaminated with infective cysts. The adult flukes are predominantly present in the intrahepatic bile ducts, but occasionally they may be found in the pancreatic duct and extrahepatic bile ducts
