摘要

Urogenital schistosomiasis causes morbidity within the genitalia but is underreported and infrequently examined in men. To draw attention to male genital schistosomiasis (MGS), a longitudinal cohort study was conducted among fishermen along the southwestern shoreline of Lake Malawi. A case series of five participants is presented inclusive of questionnaire interviews, parasitological examinations, ultrasonography, and provision of a standard dose (40 mg/kg) of praziquantel (PZQ) treatment at baseline, 1-, 3-, 6-, and 12-month follow-up time points. Eggs of Schistosoma haematobium were observed in urine or semen across all time points; parasitological diagnostics were bolstered by real-time PCR for Schistosoma DNA in semen and by portable ultrasonography to document putative MGS-associated morbidity. We highlight the importance of developing standard diagnostic tests for MGS and increasing the accessibility of PZQ treatment to men, especially those in at-risk endemic areas.
