Liver fluke. Computer illustration of an adult liver fluke, Fasciola hepatica, a parasite of sheep, cattle & humans. Humans ingest the fluke larvae by eating infested vegetation. Immature flukes penetrate the intestinal wall & pass into the bile ducts via the liver. They mature whilst ingesting blood & tissue debris. About 3 or 4 months after infection the flukes produce eggs which pass into the faeces, & so pass out of the body to contami- nate lakes and streams. The eggs hatch to release larvae which infect certain snails. A free- swimming form released from the snails becomes encysted on aquatic vegetation, forming the next infective stage.
