A case of chronic bilharzia endocervicitis, mimicking cervix dysplasia, in sub-Saharan Africa

Female genital schistosomiasis (FGS), a neglected parasitic genital infection, is a major public health problem for reproductive health in areas where schistosomiasis is endemic. The diagnosis is challenging while mimicking other cervical pathologies. We report here a case of chronic bilharzia cervicitis diagnosed through anatomical pathology examination and successfully treated with praziquantel after the patient underwent several treatments for conditions that were confused with FGS.
