Urogenital schistosomiasis due to Schistosoma (S.) haematobium is among the most prevalent parasitoses in sub-Saharan Africa. The pathology is characterized by serious and irreversible lesions in the urogenital tract induced by chronic infection with the parasite that can eventually lead to renal failure due to hydronephrosis and to squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder. Considering the frequency and severe morbidity observed already in young children, the purpose of this pilot study was to assess the prevalence and morbidity of S. haematobium infection in Guinea Bissau. A baseline survey was conducted during September 2011. A randomly selected sample of 90 children aged 6–15 years old was included in this study. Prevalence of ...
