Blood and Lymphatic System
Schistosomiasis (bilharziasis)
• > 200 million people are infected worldwide (WHO, 2013)
• 243 million people required treatment for schistosomiasis in 2011.
• >200 000 deaths per year are due to schistosomiasis in sub-Saharan Africa.
Schistosomiasis (bilharziasis)
• >>> School-age children are often most at risk tend to spend time swimming or bathing in water
• >>> in tropical and sub-tropical areas; in poor communities with poor sanitation, no adequate water resources

Pathogenesis & Clinical Symptom
1. The incubation period • usually 14-84 days;• Penetration of cercariae causes transient
dermatitis (swimmer’s itch)• Fever, chills, • urticaria, angio-neurotic edema• cough, and muscle aches
Pathogenesis & Clinical (cont’d)
2. Acute stage• Hyperemia in the wall of intestine (adult
worm arrive in the venules• Trauma with hemorrhage ( eggs escape
from the venules intestinal mucosaintestinal canal
• Diarrhea and dysentry syndrome (severe infection)
Pathogenesis & Clinical (cont’d)• immune responses to schistosome eggs
commonly lodge in the liver cirrhosis of the liver.
Pathogenesis & Clinical (cont’d)
3. Tissue proliferation &repair• The liver decreased in size : parenchyma
replaced by the scar tissue• Splenomegaly• enlarged liver, • abdominal pain,• blood in the stool
Pathogenesis & Clinical (cont’d)
• Portal hypertension• Cirrhosis ("Pipe stem Portal Fibrosis)• Ascites• Central nervous system lesions have

Biopsy of liver,lung and colon
Diagnosis
• Microscopic:–Examination of stool for eggs
• Serologic testing:
for antischistosomal antibody
Epidemiology & Control• The WHO strategy on use of anthelminthic
drugs now makes it possible to control schistosomiasis in poor and marginalized community
• Mass drugs administration / regular treatment with praziquantel (twice in a year)
• Eradication of snail with molluscacide• Health education is a must
Epidemiology & control
• In 2006, the prevalence of schistosomiasis in Danau Lindu : 0.49% and 1.08% in Napu Valley (1973: 73 %)
Prevention
• Avoid swimming or wading in freshwater when you are in endemic areas
• Drink safe water.• Vigorous towel drying after an accidental,
very brief water exposure
