Urinary bilharziasis, a parasitic disease caused by Schistosoma haematobium, affects the urinary tract. Increased travel means clinicians must consider this infection in patients from endemic regions.

Area of Science:

  • Parasitology
  • Urology
  • Infectious Diseases

Context:

  • Urinary bilharziasis is endemic in Africa and the Middle East.
  • The Canary Islands' proximity to Africa and population mobility facilitate disease introduction.
  • Ten cases diagnosed and treated in the Canary Islands highlight local relevance.

Purpose:

  • To report case-reports of urinary bilharziasis in the Canary Islands.
  • To review the clinical presentation and management of Schistosoma haematobium infection.
  • To raise awareness among healthcare providers regarding this parasitic disease in non-endemic settings.

Summary:

  • Schistosoma haematobium causes urinary bilharziasis, a significant parasitic disease.
  • The study details ten patient cases from endemic regions treated in the Canary Islands.

  • The review emphasizes the urinary tract's vulnerability to this infection.
  • Impact:

    • Enhances diagnostic considerations for urinary bilharziasis in travelers and migrants.
    • Provides clinical insights for managing Schistosoma haematobium infections.
    • Contributes to understanding the epidemiology and clinical impact of neglected tropical diseases in new regions.
