Urogenital schistosomiasis causes bladder dysfunction, hematuria, fibrosis, and urothelial changes that could lead to carcinogenesis. Exposure to schistosome infested waters, a major concern particularly for school-aged children, can lead to loss of productive life years due to heavy morbidity. Heavy morbidity contributes to the vicious cycle whereby schistosomiasis is the cause as well as the effect of poverty. Despite the global impact of urogenital schistosomiasis, relatively little is known about the mechanisms that lead to its pathophysiology. This is primarily due to the lack of an experimentally tractable animal model – rodent models of urogenital schistosomiasis result in little to no involvement of the urogenital system, thus faili...
