Today it is well known that human fascioliasis pronouncedly differs from animal fascioliasis&#46; From the 1990s onwards&#44; studies began to change this conception owing to&#58; the increasing number of human infection reports&#59; description of human fascioliasis endemic areas in many countries&#59; increased knowledge on pathology in humans including demonstration of the pathogenicity of the disease chronic phase&#59; new information about human infection sources and its epidemiology&#59; impact of climate change on disease transmission&#59; and effects of global changes on its spreading capacities&#46; All this led WHO to include fascioliasis within the group of foodborne trematodiases among the list of most important Neglected Tropical Diseases &#40;NTDs&#41;&#46;</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Until quite recently&#44;

Raw liver ingestion may also be the infection cause in given religious traditions&#46; Other previously neglected infection souces were highlighted&#58; drinking of contaminated water&#44; beverages&#44; juices and soups&#59; and also washing of vegetables&#44; fruits&#44; tubercles and kitchen utensils with contaminated water&#46; All this becomes crucial in anamnesis interpretation and may be of great help in guiding physians to a correct diagnosis&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0125"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a></p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The recent drive to &#8220;go green&#8221;

the main focus was traditionally given to the migratory or acute phase&#44; corresponding to the initial 3&#8211;4 month long migration of the juvenile flukes issued after metacercarial hatching at duodenal level and intestinal wall crossing up to the liver through the abdominal cavity&#46; This phase frequently shows pronounced symptomatology which leads patients to look for healthcare&#46; This explains why fascioliasis diagnosis usually occurs during this phase and why serological tests are preferred in developed countries&#44; given that fasciolid eggs cannot yet be found in coprological examination&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0135"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> However&#44; surveys have shown that in human endemic areas the rule is to detect infected subjects in the chronic or biliary phase&#44; in which flukes are already located in the biliary ducts or gallbladder and producing eggs detectable in stools&#46; This means lack of detection during the acute phase&#44; whether due to an asymptomatic or mild transitory symptomatology during the migratory phase not requiring healthcare or leading to diagnostic confusion&#44; or people&#44; mainly children&#44; not attending health centres in remote rural areas&#46; We know today however that an exacerbation of pathogenicity may occur along the chronic or advanced chronic phase&#44;
