BACKGROUND: Schistosomiasis, caused by Schistosoma haematobium, is a neglected disease that affects millions of people, primarily in developing countries.
METHODS: We describe cases of urogenital schistosomiasis that occurred in Cabo Verde between 2022 and 2023 along with their possible associated risk factors. This analytical, cross-sectional study included 229 suspected cases.
RESULTS: Of 229 cases, 53 (23.1%) were confirmed. The most affected age group was 15-24 years, with an incidence rate of 12 cases per 1,000 inhabitants. Male patients were more affected, with a male-to-female ratio of 12:1. The most common symptoms were hematuria (58.7%) and dysuria (17.3%). The incidence of the disease was 6.8 times higher among individuals who had contact with water from tanks.
CONCLUSION: This study revealed the emergence of urogenital schistosomiasis in Cabo Verde, highlighting the need to strengthen surveillance, prevention, and control measures.
