    No full text
    Paramphistomum cervi, normally referred to as the rumen fluke or not unusual belly fluke, is a parasitic flatworm that infects the rumen and reticulum of ruminant animals worldwide. This overview article provides an outline of the superiority, molecular characterization, treatment, and manipulates measures associated with Paramphistomum cervi. The superiority of this parasite is enormous, affecting numerous domestic ruminants consist of sheep, farm animals, and goats. Recognising Paramphistomum cervi's molecular characteristics, such as its morphology, life cycle, and host interactions, is crucial for devising effective control strategies. Diagnostic techniques, including fecal examination and postmortem examination, are essential for accurate detection of Paramphistomum cervi infections. The article further explores the pathogenesis of this parasite, including the pathological changes it induces in affected animals' rumens and reticula. There is also discussion of the financial effects of Paramphistomum cervi infections on cattle productivity. Additionally, treatment options and anthelmintic drugs available for controlling Paramphistomum cervi infections are highlighted. The review concludes with an assessment of ongoing research. Overall, this review article provides a comprehensive analysis of Paramphistomum cervi, shedding light on its impact on animal health and providing valuable insights for the scientific and veterinary community
