From 1981 to 2000 sixty-one cases of human fascioliasis were detected in the province of Gipuzkoa (Spain), most of them during the period of parenchymal invasion. Four family outbreaks were recorded. Thirty, 15, 13 and three cases were detected during the four consecutive 5-year periods. The decrease in this infection over the years is probably related to the change in eating habits.
