Japonicum : Mesentric veins draining ilio-caecal region (superior mesentric vein).* Schistosomes are transmitted by Snails (Secondary host) to man (definitive host). Infective form in snail is cercaria.* Eggs of S. hematobium have terminal spine. Eggs of S.mansoni have lateral spine and eggs of S.japonicum have lateral knob.* S. hematobium causes bilharziasis (urinary schistosomiasis) which is characterized by painless terminal hematuria.* S. japonicum and S.mansoni cause Katayama fever. Rarerly, S. hematobium can also cause Katayama fever.* Fairly's test is an intradermal skin test with cercarial antigen.
