Granulomatous Dacryoadenitis Caused by Schistosoma haematobium
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1977An 11-year-old boy from Sierra Leone developed a mass in the left lacrimal gland a year after trauma to the left side of the brow. Biopsy of the mass led to the diagnosis of schistosomiasis caused by Schistosoma haematobium, which had not been suspected previously.

The pathobiology of schistosoma haematobium infection in humans
Human Pathology, 1986Schistosoma haematobium infection is a common occurrence in Africa and the Middle East and is the world's leading cause of hematuria. Since more North Americans are venturing into endemic areas and more residents of endemic areas are seeking medical care in North America, pathologists must be able not only to diagnose urinary schistosomiasis but also ...

Acquired immunity and epidemiology of Schistosoma haematobium
Nature, 1991Human immune responses to schistosome infection have been characterized in detail. But there has been controversy over the relative importance of ecological factors (variation in exposure to infection) and immunological factors (acquired immunity) in determining the relationships between levels of infection and age typically found in areas where ...

A comparison of some isoenzymes of schistosoma mansoni and schistosoma haematobium
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1970Abstract 1. 1. The electrophoretic separation is described for acid phosphatase, non-specific esterase, leucine amino peptidase, lactase, malate, α-glutamate, glucose-6-phosphate and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenases from adults of four populations of Schistosoma mansoni and one population of S. haematobium. 2. 2.

Production of Schistosoma haematobium and Schistosoma mansoni cercariae in Tanzania
Experimental Parasitology, 1967Abstract Few Schistosoma haematobium cercariae emerged in darkness, but large numbers did emerge when snails were illuminated after a period in darkness, and the pattern of output was modified in response to alterations in the cycle of illumination. A rise in temperature from 23 °–30 °C stimulated the cercariae to emerge, but the effect of heat was

Schistosoma haematobium infection in children in Britain
BJU International, 2000Objective To highlight the existence of Schistosoma haematobium in certain ethnic minority groups in Britain and in English citizens who have recently visited Africa and the Middle East, so that general practitioners and paediatric nephrologists/urologists are aware of ...

The development ofSchistosoma haematobiumin the hamster
Annals of Tropical Medicine & Parasitology, 1978The in vivo development of Schistosoma haematobium in the hamster was studied. Six stages of development were distinguished on the basis of morphological and histochemical criteria. Schistosomula reached the lung (stage 1) on day three post-infection, with maximum concentrations on day nine. Gut formation occurred in the second stage at day 18.

Schistosoma haematobium : A Delayed Cause of Hematuria
Urology, 2017A 22-year-old African American man with recurrent episodes of gross hematuria for 6 months presented to the clinic for evaluation. A thorough history revealed that the patient emigrated from Mozambique to the United States 12 years ago. Urine culture was negative for a urinary tract infection. Cystoscopy revealed 4 lesions in the bladder. Biopsy of the

Variation in egg shape in Schistosoma haematobium
Experimental Parasitology, 1968Abstract An account is given of an attempt to define the shape of eggs of Schistosoma haematobium (Bilharz, 1852) (Schistosomatidae; Trematoda), in terms suitable for statistical analysis. The dimensions of over 5,000 eggs from several geographic strains of S.

Schistosoma haematobium: The pathology of experimental infection
Experimental Parasitology, 1985The pathologic changes in experimental animals infected with Schistosoma haematobium are reviewed and compared to the pathology in infected humans. The clinically important lesions in persons infected with S. haematobium are generally confined to the urogenital system. In experimental animals, functionally important lesions of the urogenital system are
