Oriental schistosomiasis with neurological complications: case report.

Yuesheng Li1, Allen G Ross, Xunya Hou, Zhaoyang Lou, Donald P McManus.   

Abstract

We describe a case of cerebral schistosomiasis, caused by Asian (oriental) Schistosoma japonicum trematode blood flukes, in a young Chinese patient and its management. We also provide a brief update for physicians on the clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of schistosomiasis, with particular emphasis on neuroschistosomiasis, the most severe clinical outcome associated with this parasitic infection.
