  • Title: Perianal lesions after return from Togo: An isolated cutaneous manifestation of schistosomiasis.
    Author: Note S, Vanbrabant P, Soentjens P.
    Journal: Acta Clin Belg; 2016 Dec; 71(6):431-434. PubMed ID: 27075797.
    Abstract:
    Isolated perianal lesions in a returned traveller from Togo were observed. Eosinophilia was the lead to schistosomiasis, although no systemic symptoms were reported. This case report of cutaneous schistosomiasis demonstrates the importance of a travel history, especially geographic and exposure features, and treats the differential diagnosis of eosinophilia in a returned traveller with skin lesions.
