1. Abstract
We report a chronic Intestinal Schistosomiasis which is presented as a Sigmoid Volvulus in a healthy 21-year -old Sudanese male who presented with abdominal pain. Sigmoid Volvulus was diagnosed, and he underwent exploratory laparotomy. Pathological study by microscope revealed a non-necrotizing granulomas with centrally located egg with a lateral spine characteristic of S. mansoni. To our knowledge, this is the fifth reported case worldwide.
