Pathological studies on encysted metacercariae infections among some freshwater fish in Egyptian aquaculture

Fish may harbor pathogens especially parasitic diseases which interfere with the aquaculture production and could consitiute a zoonotic importance, especially in developing countries. In this study, 200 freshwater fishes (100 Oreochromis niloticus and 100 Clarias gariepinus) were collected from Abbassa fish farms, Egypt and examined for encysted metacercariae
