The hepatosplenic form of schistosomiasis mansoni is associated with impairment of blood coagulation, a result of reduced synthesis of clotting factors and inhibitors, enhanced fibrinolytic activity, or ''consumption'' of plasma clotting proteins. the pathogenesis of the latter mechanism has not been elucidated. Schistosoma mansoni (Sm) has a long lifespan as an intravascular fluke, probably a consequence of its ability to evade host immunologic defense mechanisms. in order to determine if the parasite is able to disturb hemostasis in vivo, we studied 21 non-alcoholics with normal body mass index, and HBsAg, anti-HBc, and anti-HCV negative adult males, who were not using drugs. Eleven had the hepatointestinal form of the disease, with viabl...
