High Index Of Suspicion

Pleural effusion is easily diagnosed often managed optimally with standard protocols. It at times, is a diagnostic dilemma as it comes with big list of differential diagnosis. Pleural effusion due to pancreaticopleural fistula (PPF) is a rare and on right side is even rarer. Detailed history along with high index of suspicion in required to diagnose PPF, which is confirmed by increased level of pleural fluid amylase and lipase along with magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) demonstrating fistula tract. Here we report the case of a young patient who presented with respiratory distress and was wrongly diagnosed as right sided tubercular effusion which later turned out to be pancreatic effusion. Management in our case was multi-disciplinary involving pulmonologist, gastroenterologist, radiologist and thoracic surgeon.

The paper describes the case of Fasciola hepatica in patient from Turkmenistan presenting with icterus, biliary-type pain, dark urine and jaundice. Magnetic resonance (MRC) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) were performed and after sphincterotomy one Fasciola hepatica was extracted. After the ERC antiparasitic treatment was given with triclabendazole. Clinical outcome was favourable. In conclusion, fascioliasis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of obstructive jaundice, especially in patients travelled to endemic regions, and it should be kept in mind that ERC and triclabendazole play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of these patients. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of Fasciola hepatica treated by ERC in Russia.
