The joints of 124 young adult patients with bilharziasis were examined. Heels, sacroiliac joints, cervical spine, knee joint, dorsal spine, and tarsal joints were affected. Biopsy of the knee synovia showed synovitis, vasculitis, and the presence of bilharzial ova in three cases. Radiologically the heels and sacroiliac joints showed inflammatory changes. Schistosomiasis may cause an arthropathy.

对124例年轻成年血吸虫病患者的关节进行了检查。足跟、骶髂关节、颈椎、膝关节、胸椎和跗关节均受累。3例膝关节滑膜活检显示有滑膜炎、血管炎及血吸虫卵。影像学检查显示足跟和骶髂关节有炎症改变。血吸虫病可能引起关节病。
