	Clonorchis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Clonorchis sinensis, commonly known as the Human liver fluke or the Chinese liver fluke is a flatworm.
		The egg of a Clonorchis sinensis (commonly: Human Liver Fluke), which contains the miracidium that develops into the adult form, floats in freshwater until it is eaten by a snail.
		Dwelling in the bile ducts, Clonorchis induces an inflammatory reaction, epithelial hyperplasia and sometimes even adenocarcinoma of the bile ducts (cholangiocarcinoma), the incidence of which is high in fluke-infested areas.

	Clonorchis sinensis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Clonorchis sinensis is a human liver fluke in the class Trematoda, Phylum Platyhelminthes.
		This parasite lives in the liver of humans, and is found mainly in the common bile duct and gall bladder, feeding on bile.
		The adult clonorchis, which is about 10-25 mm long and 3-5 mm wide, is hermaphroditic.

		Clonorchis sinensis is commonly referred to as the Chinese liver fluke because of its predominance in that country.
		The parasitic flatworms are also frequently found in Korea, Vietnam, and Japan, where they primarily target humans as their definitive hosts, though several other animals are also disposed to infection.
		Known as clonorchiasis, chronic liver fluke infestation is rarely fatal, but can lead to increased susceptibility to dangerous bacteria such as Salmonella.

		The size of C. sinensis is 1-2 centimeters (0.5-1 in) and ~4 mm (~0.4 in) wide.
		Another significant problem in the eradication of Clonorchis sinensis is that many people do not have access to a reliable detection method such as a fecal screening.
		The best way to eradicate Clonorchis sinensis from a given area would be to change the cultural habits to prevent the ingestion of uncooked fish through health education.

		Depending on the habitat in the infected host, flukes can be classified as blood flukes, liver flukes, lung flukes, and intestinal flukes (see Classification of trematodes according to their habitat).
		C sinensis is a widespread parasite of humans found in Southeast Asia, causing infection of the biliary passage.
		The infection of the biliary tract by C sinensis, O viverrini, and O felineus demonstrates adenomatous hyperplasia, periductal inflammation, periductal fibrosis, and diffuse or localized dilatation of ducts and may be associated with cholangiocarcinoma in C sinensis.
