Cutaneous Schistosomiasis

الملخص

Cutaneous schistosomiasis is extremely rare even in endemic regions. I report a case of a 9-year-old girl had infected by schistosoma and presented late with vulval warty partly ulcerated nodule, the diagnosis was made on the basis of a routine skin biopsy by identification of schistosoma haematobium eggs deposited in the skin tissue and surrounded by inflammatory infiltrate with mild dysplastic change of epidermis. Dermatologists should be aware of this presentation of schistosomiasis when evaluating patients with unusual skin lesions.
