Urogenital schistosomiasis is a type of parasitosis produced by the schistosoma, very rare in our environment and its prevalence increases due to the development of migratory moments. It should be bear in mind when there is sporadic hematuria that affects patients coming from endemic zones or with antecedents of travelling to exotic countries, that is why it is necessary and detailed clinical querry. At present the drug of choice is prozicuantel.
