Abstract

We described the case of a Guinea-Conakry patient presented with a pulmonary Schistosoma mansoni infection. Hypereosinophilia, positive serology and multiple lung nodules led us to suspect the diagnosis. However, parasitic examination of stool and urine were negative. The diagnosis was obtained thanks to specific serum PCR.

多发性肺结节显示慢性肺血吸虫病。

我们描述了一例几内亚-科纳克里患者的病例，患者出现肺部曼氏血吸虫感染。嗜酸性粒细胞增多、血清学阳性和肺部多发结节使我们怀疑该病的诊断。然而，粪便和尿液的寄生虫检查结果均为阴性。通过特异性血清聚合酶链式反应（PCR）获得了诊断结果。
