Three patients with abdominal pain were studied and through ultrasonography, it was suspected that they had Fasciola hepatica in their gallbladder and choedochio. By using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) , the presence of parasites in extrahepatic biliar passages of the cases was confirmed and then, it was taken out with a dormia basket. It was concluded that imaging is a diagnostic means to be considered in this parasitosis.
