schistosomiasis , bilharziasis,or snail fever,parasitic disease caused by blood flukes, trematode worms of
the genus Schistosoma. Three species are human parasites: S. mansoni, S. japonicum, and S.
haematobium. The disease is prevalent in Asia, some Pacific islands, Africa, the West Indies, South
America, Spain, Puerto Rico, and Cyprus. The larvae of the parasite are harbored by snails, which
serve as intermediate hosts, and infect humans who bathe in or otherwise come in contact with infested
waters. The larvae enter through the skin, migrate via the blood vessels, and mature in the lungs. From
there they travel to the veins of the upper or lower intestine or bladder and reproduce. Some eggs pass
out in the feces. Others are carried into the liver, where the body surrounds them with white blood
cells, forming hundreds of tiny ball-like granulomas that eventually impair the liver's ability to function.
