In acute fasciolosis, immature flukes grow and migrate within the liver parenchyma, causing necrotic tracts and haemorrhage. Damage to hepatocytes releases GDH, accounting for the elevation detectable in serum levels. The liver is also subject to post-necrotic scarring, where necrotic areas shrink and fibrose and normal tissues hypertrophy. | In acute fasciolosis, immature flukes grow and migrate within the liver parenchyma, causing necrotic tracts and haemorrhage.
