En pathologie humaine et animale, les Trématodes jouent un rôle qui n'est pas négligeable. La grande douve du foie, pour peu qu'elle soit abondante, provoque au bétail et surtout au mouton une maladie grave : la pourriture ou cachexie aqueuse. L'animal devient anémique et souffre d'œdèmes temporaires. Il s'amaigrit et meurt épuisé. 1, record 1, French, - cachexie%20aqueuse
