RESUMEN
Several parasites infest liver or biliary tree, either during their maturation stages or as adult worms. biliary tree parasites may cause pancreatitis, cholecystitis, biliary tree obstruction, recurrent cholangitis, biliaiy tree strictures and some may lead to cholangiocarcinoma. This review discusses the hepatobilialy parasites, and shows our experience in diagnosis and management of these parasites. Ultrasonography of the liver is diagnostic in schistosomiasis, hydatid cysts, amebic liver abscess, ascariasis and other biliary tree parasites showing bile duct dilatation. Percutaneous aspiration under ultrasonography guidance of hydatid liver cysts or amebic abscess are effective measures in management. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography [ERCP] is safe and effective in diagnosis and management of biliary tree parasites
