Popis: Schistosomiasis is one of the commonest parasitic diseases affecting mankind. Egyptian schistosomiasis (mansoni and haematobium) is capable of producing fibrosis and/or calcification, resulting in striking radiological features in target organs. Our two cases with biliary and pancreatic calcification provide a combination of features not documented previously.
