Schistosoma japonicum–Associated Colorectal Cancer: A Review [PDF]

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2019
Schistosoma japonicum is a digenetic blood fluke that has been implicated in the carcinogenesis of several human malignancies, notably liver and colorectal cancer (CRC). Schistosoma japonicum–associated colorectal cancer (SACC) is a distinct subtype with biological behavior analogous to colitis-induced CRC.
