A case of ectopic lesion of Schistosoma haematobium of the penis with extensive tissue destruction, simulating an early carcinoma of the penis and almost resulting in an autoamputation of the crown of the penis, is presented. The penis was surgically repaired and the patient treated with ambilhar. In schistosoma endemic area, it is important to think of ectopic schistosoma lesion by such a presentation. Existing theories to explain the presence of schistosoma eggs in locations outside the portal-caval system were reviewed and another one was advanced: its being sexually transmitted.
本文报告一例阴茎埃及血吸虫异位病变,伴有广泛组织破坏,形似早期阴茎癌,几乎导致阴茎头部自行截断。对阴茎进行了手术修复,并给予患者锑剂治疗。在血吸虫病流行地区,出现此类表现时,应考虑到异位血吸虫病变。本文回顾了现有的关于门脉-腔静脉系统以外部位存在血吸虫卵的理论,并提出了另一种理论:其通过性传播。
