A 25-year-old male Nigerian undergraduate who had earlier been treated with praziquantel for schistosomal epidydymitis presented with clinical features of pyelonephritis, and radiological appearances of bilateral hydroureteronephrosis with fibrosis of lower ureters. Surgical resection of the ureters, Boari flap and Psoas hitch reconstruction were done. The histology of the resected ureters proved schistosomiasis.

Nonfluoroscopic pressure colostography in the evaluation of genitourinary fistula of anorectal malformations: experience in a resource-poor environment.
