Fig 2.
Ultrasonography images of urinary bladder of PSAC infected with S. haematobium.
a) focal thickening of the bladder wall, longitudinal plane shows mass-like lesion (arrows); b) transverse plane image shows diffuse thickening of the bladder wall more evident in the right posterior wall; c) transverse plane image shows a focal heterogeneous echo of the bladder wall in absence of true thickening or mass-like lesions in the lumen; d) longitudinal plane shows a marked and diffuse thickening of the bladder left wall with a mass like lesion (arrow); e) image of diffuse and marked thickening of the bladder wall with pseudo-polyp lesion; f) focal thickening of the wall evident on the right wall and diffuse heterogeneity of bladder echo.
Fig 3.
Ultrasonography images of urinary bladder of SAC infected with S. haematobium.
a) Thickening of the bladder wall, transverse plane shows thickening of the left lateral wall (arrows); b) Diffuse thickening of the bladder wall more evident in the right posterior wall, echogenic snow in the lumen; c) In oblique longitudinal plane ultrasound image shows a mass-like lesion in the mucosa layer of the bladder. Block arrow indicates the dilation of the ureter; d) longitudinal plane shows a marked and diffuse thickening of the bladder wall with a mass-like lesion (arrow); e) mass-like lesion in the absence of a marked and diffuse thickening of the bladder wall; f) multifocal thickening of the wall, particularly evident on the right and posterior wall.
