Schistosoma intercalatum schistosomiasis is confined to the western regions of equatorial Africa. It is often asymptomatic but it produces microscopic lesions in the intestine (mainly the rectum), the liver and the genital organs of both men and women, the latter lesions being more insidious and insufficiently explored. Its treatment, like that of other schistosomiases, consists of one course of praziquantel. Naturally, S. intercalatum may be hybridized with S. haematobium in Gabon and Cameroun which are the two countries where the two parasites coexist.
间插血吸虫病局限于赤道非洲西部地区。该病通常无症状，但会在肠道（主要是直肠）、肝脏以及男性和女性的生殖器官产生微观病变，后者的病变更为隐匿且研究不足。其治疗方法与其他血吸虫病一样，采用一个疗程的吡喹酮。在加蓬和喀麦隆这两个两种寄生虫共存的国家，间插血吸虫可能会与埃及血吸虫杂交。
