title: A new suspected focus of Schistosoma haematobium in the Metema area, Gonder administrative region, north-west Ethiopia.
abstract: Two cases of Schistosoma haematobium, one in a 10 year old boy who was born in Metema and had never left the area, and another from a Sudaness refugee, are reported. Further investigation is required to verify if S. haematobium has been imported from Sudan or is being transmitted in Metema.
