Urinary and intestinal schistosomiasis are both endemic in Niger with a dominance of Schistosoma haematobium. This study pointed out the appearance of the infection to S. mansoni in the Niger River valley, where it was until then unknown in Niger. In one year the prevalence increased from 5.9 to 19.5%.
