Abstract
200 Egyptian boys and men with urinary schistosomiasis were studied by clinical evaluation, radiography, quantitative egg excretion, bacterial cultures, and tests of renal function. Results were analysed by age, by symptoms (clinical grade), by presence of polypoid vs calcified schistosomal lesions (radiological stage), by presence or absence of obstructive uropathy, and by response to antischistosomal treatment.Keywords
