“…Moreover, gall retention based on the advanced ligament proliferation and icteric colour change in liver and near tissues, could also be observed. In this case we present, we did not face with any findings except a slight increase of the periton liquid at the abdominal cavity (Balkaya and Şimşek, 2010).…”

Hydatid cyst is a significant helminthic zoonotic that threatens human and animal health all over the world including our country. Hydatid cyst being endemic in a geography that includes our country, still constitutes a significant health problem. It causes pathology, growth failure and loss of meat and milk by disrupting the function of organs. Hydatid disease could not be eradicated though diagnostic threatment systems are developed and sometimes cyst could become colossal. The greatest problems for hydatid diseases are the complications based on anaphylaxis and their frequency increase through diameter. In this study, we aimed to present case with intensive hydatid cyst.

“…Yildirim et al (2007) conducted a study in the province of Kayseri and reported a seroprevalence of 65.2% for the disease. Balkaya and Simsek (2010) conducted a post-slaughter study and reported an F.hepatica prevalence of 21%. Sen et al (2011) conducted a study in the Derinkuyu district of Nevşehir province utilizing both the fecal inspection and copro-ELISA methods and reported 2.02% and 3.03% prevalence for the methods respectively.…”

“…Fasciolosis usually has a chronic course in cattle, and the disease usually originates from infested forages (Holland et al, 2000;Balkaya and Simsek, 2010). The symptoms of the disease include weight loss, anemia, reduced milk yield, submandibular edema, and irregular coat (Kurtpınar, 1957;Batmaz, 2010).…”

The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of Fasciola hepatica in the cattle raised in the Siirt province of Turkey and to obtain epidemiologic data about the disease in order to reveal its relationship with certain biochemical parameters. The material of the study consists of a total of 380 cattle. The blood sample was obtained from the jugular vein of the animals. Meanwhile, approximately 50-100 gr of feces were also collected from the animal’s rectum for a fecal examination. The zinc sulfate flotation method was used to inspect the fecal samples. 338 (89%) of samples were found to be seronegative, while the remaining 42 (11%) were seropositive. GGT, ALP, ALT, AST, TP and Albumin parameters analyzed on the serum samples. GGT levels of the seropositive animals were found to be statistically higher compared to the control group. As a result, the ELISA method was confirmed to be more accurate in the diagnosis of fasciolosis, and the increased GGT activity in the serum was determined as a significant indicator of the diagnosis.

“…In a previous study (Balkaya & Simsek, 2010), a total of 2088 cattle were inspected for bile ducts of liver after slaughter in a local abattoir in Erzurum province and 439 (21 %) were found to be infected with F. hepatica. 15 adult flukes belonged to different hosts were used for DNA isolation.…”

The most common and widespread liver flukes of the genus Fasciola are Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica. Adults of both species occur in many domestic ruminants and in humans and can cause serious disease. The differential diagnosis of these flukes infection is very important because of their different transmission and epidemiological characteristics. A simple and rapid PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) assay, using the common restriction enzymes AluI and RsaI, is described to distinguish between both fasciolid species. After the digestion of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase 1 (CO1) PCR product with the restriction enzyme AluI, the RFLP profile obtained from F. hepatica revealed two fragments, whereas F. gigantica was not cut. The RsaI digestion generated two fragments from F. gigantica, whereas it did not cut the PCR product from F. hepatica. Results were confirmed with CO1 sequence analysis of both F. hepatica and F. gigantica. The present study suggests that the PCRRFLP method described here can be used for the proper identification of Fasciola species.
