Objective. To provide the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of patients with opisthorchiasis in the Republic of Bashkortostan.
Subjects and methods. Examinations were made in patients with a documented diagnosis of acute opisthorchiasis who had been treated at Ufa Infectious Disease Clinical Hospital Four in 2017. Clinical anamnestic, laboratory (ELISA, coprovoscopy), and instrumental (fibrogastroduodenoscopy, abdominal ultrasound examination, indirect hepatic elastography) studies were used.
Results. Thirty cases of acute opisthorchiasis were diagnosed in the Republic of Bashkortostan over 5 months (May–September) in 2017. There were more male patients (70.0%), which was associated with a fishing hobby and rotation-based work in the regions of Western Siberia. Among the clinical manifestations, there was a preponderance of symptoms of acute allergosis and hepatobiliary system lesion. ELISA was of crucial importance (100.0%) for diagnosing the acute phase of opisthorchiasis. Typhus-like (50.0%) and hepatocholangic (40.3%) types of acute opisthorchiasis prevailed.
Conclusion. The rise in the incidence of opisthorchiasis in the Republic of Bashkortostan is due to the activation of local foci located in the Kama River, Belaya River, and Ufa River basins, as well as to the importation of fish of the family Cyprinidae from endemic regions and to the labor migration of the population of the republic to the regions of Western Siberia.
