In its hepatic migratory phase, it can mimic other liver pathologies such as hydatid cysts or pyogenic liver abscesses, making diagnosis difficult. We report a case of a 48\u2010year\u2010old Ethiopian woman with a three\u2010month history of right upper quadrant abdominal pain, intermittent fever, and vomiting. She frequently consumed raw lettuce and tomatoes. Laboratory evaluation revealed leukocytosis with marked eosinophilia. Abdominal ultrasound showed a heterogeneous hepatic lesion, raising suspicion for hydatid cyst or early liver abscess. Triphasic CT revealed multiple confluent hypoattenuating lesions in segment VII and thrombosis of the right anterior portal vein. Although serologic, parasitologic, and histopathologic confirmation was unavailable, the diagnosis of hepatic fascioliasis was strongly supported by clinical findings, radiologic features, endemic exposure, and rapid response to triclabendazole. Anti\u2010parasitic therapy and anticoagulation resulted in clinical and hematologic improvement. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of hepatic fascioliasis in low\u2010resource settings and the importance of considering it in patients with hepatic lesions, eosinophilia, and portal vein thrombosis. To our knowledge, this is the first reported Ethiopian case of hepatic fascioliasis complicated by portal venous thrombosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ccr3.71200","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,8]],"date-time":"2025-10-08T04:25:48Z","timestamp":1759897548000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Hepatic Fascioliasis Mimicking Hydatid Cyst and Complicated by Portal Vein Thrombosis: A Case Report From Ethiopia"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-4489-3352","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Binyam Mulatu","family":"Habte","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Medicine and Health Sciences University of Gondar  Gondar Ethiopia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yoseph Mulatu","family":"Habte","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ethio Tebib Hospital  Addis Ababa Ethiopia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Makida Mulatu","family":"Habte","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Yekatit 12 Hospital Medical College  Addis Ababa Ethiopia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Selamawit Gudeta","family":"Jima","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Yekatit 12 Hospital Medical College  Addis Ababa Ethiopia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-8153-5018","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alazar","family":"Sitotaw","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine Yekatit 12 Hospital Medical College  Addis Ababa Ethiopia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mekoya","family":"Mengistu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine Yekatit 12 Hospital Medical College  Addis Ababa Ethiopia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_13_2_1","volume-title":"Neglected Tropical Disease: Fascioliasis \u2013 Questions and Answers [Internet]","author":"World Health Organization","year":"2024"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_13_3_1","first-page":"13","article-title":"An Overview of Fascioliasis: Epidemiology, Clinical Manifestations, Diagnosis and Treatment","volume":"20","author":"Marcos L.
