Abstract
We present an interesting case of a patient who initially presented with urinary retention and was subsequently found to have bilateral grade 5 vesicoureteral reflux, a thick and noncompliant bladder, and biopsy proven ova of Schistosoma haematobium. This patient was subsequently managed surgically with a robotic radical cystoprostatectomy with intracorporeal ileal conduit diversion. Final pathology revealed chronic schistosomiasis with numerous ova present throughout the bladder. To our knowledge, no similar cases have been previously documented in the literature.
