520 _aABSTRACT In Tanzania, Schistosoma mansoni is endemic and causes intestinal schistosomiasis which affects var- ious internal organs. However, worldwide there have been very few reports of cases of peritonitis due to schistosomal appendicitis. Here we report a rare case of schistosomal appendicitis with peritonitis in a 33 year-old male patient who recovered quickly after surgery. Keywords: appendicitis; peritonitis; Schistosoma mansoni; Tanzania.
