title: [Surveillance of schistosomiasis after its transmission being interrupted in Huangshan City, 1994-2010].
abstract: In Huangshan City, schistosomiasis surveillance from 1994 to 2010 showed that there were no patients and livestock newly infected with schistosome, no infected Oncomelania snails, but the snail status was stable. It is suggested that the schistosomiasis control strategy with emphasis on snail surveillance is effective, and snail surveillance is still a key measure of schistosomiasis surveillance in the future.
