A 38-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for further examination of bilateral pleural and pericardial effusion. He had complained of dyspnea on exertion occurring six months after ingestion of raw freshwater crabs, Patomon dehaani. X-ray films and CT scan of the chest taken on admission revealed massive bilateral pleural and pericardial effusion. High serum IgE level and eosinophilia were noted on laboratory examination. Antibody against Paragonimus Miyazakii antigen was detected in patient's serum as well as pleural and pericardial fluids by the Ouchterlony test. The patient was treated effectively by Bithionol.
