Abstract
We present the cases of three patients from different rural areas of Peru whose clinical assessments indicated abdominal pain as a main symptom, and who showed associated eosinophilia. There were also various findings through imaging, especially CT scans (e.g. single or multiple hypodense abnormalities, subcapsular hematoma), which led to different diagnosis in each case. Serologic tests (ELISA or Western Blot) on all the patients were performed to obtain a definitive diagnosis. The patients were treated with triclabendazole (“TBZ”)-recommended medication for this disease in Peru-resulting in satisfactory results in all three cases, as confirmed by the clinical, analytical and imaging assessments. Patient tolerance to the medication was noted as good.
