A recently acquired Schistosoma mansoni infection that resulted in a cervical polyp containing a pair of adult worms is reported in a Puerto Rican woman. Active schistosome transmission is not commonly reported in Puerto Rico at the present time and the ectopic location of the worms is rare in very light infections. Observations on the biology of the parasite recovered from the patient are described.
据报道，一名波多黎各女性近期感染曼氏血吸虫，导致宫颈息肉内出现一对成虫。目前在波多黎各，曼氏血吸虫的活跃传播并不常见，而且在极轻度感染中，虫体异位的情况也很罕见。本文描述了从该患者体内回收的寄生虫的生物学观察结果。
