Anisakiasis is a parasitic disease caused by eating undercooked or uncooked fish in which correct processingis not carried out for the elimination or death of Anisakis simplex (AS) larvae. AS is a nematode of the Anisakiadae family. Symptoms are very unspecific, from moderate abdominal pain to an acute pain that can suggest need for surgery. For its diagnostic orientation, a detailed clinical history and relevant complementary imaging tests that suggest and support the diagnosis are necessary.
