Abstract:
Abstract <strong>Background:</strong>&nbsp;Female genital schistosomiasis is a gynecological disease caused by&nbsp;<em>Schistosoma haematobium</em>. The uterine cervix appears to be the most affected area with most cases found in sub-Saharan Africa. Though both males and females can be affected, the consequences of genital schistosomiasis are more pronounced in females with reported increased risk of HIV transmission and malignancy of female genitalia. Female genital schistosomiasis of the cervix shares similarities in presentation to those of cervical intraepithelial neoplasm and sexual tran

Abstract:
Schistosomiasis is a chronic parasitic infection that affects more than 220 million people worldwide, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). One of the complications of urogenital Schistosomiasis is female genital Schistosomiasis (FGS) which is associated with the presence of S. haematobium eggs and related pathologies in the genitals of women living in or visiting schistosomiasis-endemic areas. FGS is a neglected and misdiagnosed gynaecological disease with un-specific clinical symptoms and signs. It adversely affects the quality of sexual and reproductive health of women and is a risk fac

Abstract:
Female Genital Schistosomiasis is a gynecological disease that is a complication of parasitic Schistosoma haematobium infection and affects at least 40 million girls and women, mostly in sub-Saharan Africa. Little is known about how healthcare workers in endemic areas perceive and manage (diagnose and treat) Female Genital Schistosomiasis. We conducted cross-sectional focus group discussions and key informant interviews among healthcare workers in northwestern Tanzania. Healthcare workers, particularly those working in areas where S. haematobium is highly endemic, were purposively sampled to p

Abstract:
Objective: The present research performed a clinical and histopathological analysis of female genital schistosomiasis (FGS) cases. This was a descriptive and retrospective study, with a quantitative approach based on secondary databases belonging to Memorial Nestor Piva from Universidade Tiradentes. Methodology: Medical records and biopsies from patients affected with genital schistosomiasis (1984-1994) 75 pathology reports were found, biopsies of feminine genitals, with the respective paraffin blocks and slides. In these three search blocks, to contain sufficient quantity of biological materi

Abstract:
Background In the absence of an active schistosomiasis control program, the affected community is vulnerable to complications such as female genital schistosomiasis. Research has shown that female genital schistosomiasis is a challenge faced by many African women including those from South Africa. Since 2008, the South African National Department of Health has been trying to resuscitate the schistosomiasis control programme; the programme has not been fully established or implemented. However, there are some surveillance best practices that the country can institutionalise to improve control.

Abstract:
Sexually transmitted diseases increase the probability for HIV transmission, presumably through lesions in the genital mucosa. Female genital schistosomiasis, a special form of urinary schistosomiasis due to infection with Schistosoma haematobium, may be another risk-factor for transmission of HIV. From published data there seem to be pathophysiological, immunological and epidemiological evidence for an association between genital ulcer disease due to S. haematobium and HIV-infection in women. Female genital schistosomiasis could be seen as an example of how an interaction between a parasitic

Abstract:
AbstractThis team actively created strong bonds with stakeholders to successfully research the validity and feasibility of rolling out sexual and reproductive health (SRH) self-screening programs. The success of this effort relied on local and external support from all involved, from the field to the policy-making level. This resulted in a novel transdisciplinary approach to integrate surveillance for well-researched infections, such as HIV and human papillomavirus, with less understood and hence neglected diseases, such as female genital schistosomiasis.
