Abstract

Abstract:

A case of schistosomiasis haematobia imported from abroad was reported from Wenzhou Municipality Center for Disease Control and Prevention On November 27, 2019. The clinical data of the patient were collected; urine and fecal samples as well as the pathological sections of bladder tissue were subject to laboratory examination; and epidemiological investigation was conducted. Schistosoma haematobium eggs were found in the urine sediment smear, and identified in the pathological tissue sections, which were considered as S. haematobium egg granuloma. These findings, combined with the clinical symptoms and epidemiological history of the patient, confirmed the diagnosis of imported schistosomiasis haematobia from Nigeria. After treatment with an oral dose of 60 mg/kg praziquantel × 2 days, the patient's symptom was improved. Follow-up urine testing at 1 week and 1 month after treatment revealed no presence of eggs. This case was the first imported case of schistosomiasis haematobia in Wenzhou city.
