Sarah Anne Leir1, Oliver Foot1, Dakshika Jeyaratnam2, Martin Brunel Whyte3.   

Abstract

Chronic schistosomiasis and its intestinal manifestations can lead to anaemia. However, schistosomiasis resulting in anaemia is rare in the UK. This report aims to raise awareness of schistosomiasis in immigrants to the UK and prevent missed diagnosis. © BMJ Publishing Group Limited 2019. No commercial re-use. See rights and permissions.
