CT of genitourinary calcification due to schistosomiasis.
Calcification of the ureters, bladder and seminal vesicles was detected in six patients studied on computed tomography (CT) for evaluation of genitourinary schistosomiasis and in four others examined for intestinal schistosomiasis. Other findings included pyelocaliectasis in ten kidneys, vesical carcinoma in one, seminal vesicle granuloma in one and non-visceral calcification in pelvic tissue in one patient.
