The authors report a case of pure macular oedema. After ruling out all other etiologies, the diagnosis of schistosomiasis due to Schistosoma mansoni was established, with parasitologic and serologic proofs. The specific treatment was followed up by a progressive restoration associated with an acute increase of eosinophila. The question of ocular damages in schistosomiasis is exposed according to the existant litterature: 1) Presence of schistosoma eggs in the ocular area. 2) Presence of adult schistosome in the eyeball. 3) Ocular troubles assumed to be in relation with the presence of adult worm or to larva.
作者报告了一例单纯性黄斑水肿病例。在排除所有其他病因后，通过寄生虫学和血清学证据确诊为曼氏血吸虫引起的血吸虫病。特异性治疗后病情逐渐恢复，同时嗜酸性粒细胞急剧增加。根据现有文献阐述了血吸虫病眼部损害的问题：1）眼部区域存在血吸虫卵。2）眼球内存在成虫血吸虫。3）假定与成虫或幼虫存在有关的眼部疾病。
