title: [Urogenital bilharziasis in Germany].
abstract: Urogenital schistosomiasis was confirmed in four patients, three Egyptians and one from Guinea. They were admitted with typical complaints, some chronic some acute, and successfully treated with praziquantel (Biltrizide). Since a single oral dose is sufficient, this is a greatly simplified form of treatment, without significant side effects.
