Bilharzia is a parasitic disease caused by a flatworm called Schistosoma. In Madagascar we find three species of Schistosoma, namely Schistosoma mansoni, responsible for intestinal Bilharzia; Schistosoma haematobium, responsible for Bilharzia bladder and Schistosoma intercalatum, responsible for rectal Bilharzia.
