Opisthorchiasis – oral helminthiasis caused by the trematodes Opisthorchis felineus and Opisthorchis viverrini, is an endemic natural focal disease, but quite
widespread in the world. In Russia, helminthiasis is widespread mainly in the territories of the Ob, Irtysh, Volga, Kama, and Dnieper basins. Recently,
opisthorchiasis has been found in non-endemic regions including North America and Western Europe.
