MORALES, D. et al. Intermittent hematuria: Vesical schistosomosis. Concerning one case. Anales Sis San Navarra [online]. 2009, vol.32, n.2, pp.265-268. ISSN 1137-6627.

We present a clinical case of vesical schistosomiasis that we consider unusual in our environment. The clinical features of this parasitosis include an intermittent hematuria of several weeks evolution which is not resolved with the usual treatment. Due to the increase in the immigrant population arriving from endemic areas, we must pay greater attention to this emergent pathology. The process is resolved satisfactorily with treatment and complications are avoided.

Keywords : Vesical schistosomiasis; Hematuria; Schistosoma haematobium.
