Case description

Hepatosplenic Schistosomiasis - Again, this aspect of the disease is only seen a few years after infection. The pathology is similar to that seen in the intestine, with a cellular, granulomatous inflammation around eggs trapped in the liver, leading to fibrosis and hepatosplenic disease. Other organs may more rarely also contain granulomas around eggs, particularly the lungs.
