    Author: Li Y, Ross AG, Hou X, Lou Z, McManus DP.
    Journal: Ann Clin Microbiol Antimicrob; 2011 Feb 07; 10():5. PubMed ID: 21294922.
    Abstract:
    We describe a case of cerebral schistosomiasis, caused by Asian (oriental) Schistosoma japonicum trematode blood flukes, in a young Chinese patient and its management. We also provide a brief update for physicians on the clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of schistosomiasis, with particular emphasis on neuroschistosomiasis, the most severe clinical outcome associated with this parasitic infection.
