Abstract

Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease classically responsible for intestinal or urogenital forms. We report the incidental diagnosis of ectopic mammary schistosomiasis involving Schistosoma haematobium following a breast cancer screening mammogram in a European patient with a distant history of travel.
