我们报告一位14个月大的女婴，因持续发烧、肝肿大、白细胞增多并嗜酸性粒细胞增多而出现大规模肝脏毛细管虫感染的病例。文献中已经报告了25例人类感染这种寄生虫的病例，其中大部分是儿童。这是大韩民国报告的首例肝毛细线虫病病例。诊断是通过肝脏的针吸活组织检查作出的。同时对活检标本进行扫描电子显微镜检查。开始了噻苯咪唑治疗，患者在治疗期间出现了肝病相关的IgA肾病。简要回顾了已证实的肝片吸虫感染病例的文献。
We report a case of massive hepatic infection by Capillaria hepatica in a 14-month-old girl who presented with the symptom triad of persistent fever, hepatomegaly, and leukocytosis with eosinophilia. Twenty-five cases of human infection with this parasite, mostly in children, have been reported in the literature. This is the first case of hepatic capillariasis reported in the Republic of Korea. The diagnosis was made by needle biopsy of the liver. Scanning electron microscopic examination of the biopsy specimen was also performed. Thiabendazole therapy was initiated and the patient developed liver disease-related IgA nephropathy during the therapy. The literature dealing with proven cases of infection with C. hepatica is briefly reviewed.
