Aspects of the pathogenesis of cerebral schistosomiasis have been elucidated. Arterial embolization alone, by either worms or eggs, does not appear to be likely as a major cause of the disease. When large numbers of eggs enter the brain, sensitization may play a role in the occurrence of neurological signs. These studies support but do not prove the theory that worms in the cerebral veins lay eggs that then cause the disease.
脑血吸虫病发病机制的一些方面已得到阐明。单独由虫体或虫卵引起的动脉栓塞似乎不太可能是该疾病的主要病因。当大量虫卵进入脑部时，致敏作用可能在神经症状的发生中起作用。这些研究支持但未证实脑静脉中的虫体产卵进而引发疾病这一理论。
