The disease manifests in two primary forms: urinary schistosomiasis, caused by Schistosoma haematobium, and intestinal schistosomiasis, associated with <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\"><jats:italic>S. mansoni<\/jats:italic><\/jats:styled-content> and <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\"><jats:italic>S. japonicum<\/jats:italic><\/jats:styled-content>. This case report describes a 12\u2010year\u2010old female from New Halfa, Sudan, who presented with a progressively enlarging lower abdominal mass. She had a prior history of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\"><jats:italic>S. mansoni<\/jats:italic><\/jats:styled-content> infection, diagnosed and treated a year earlier. Clinical evaluation revealed a firm, mobile, non\u2010tender suprapubic mass, while imaging studies identified a large abdominopelvic mass with mesenteric lymphadenopathy. Surgical exploration confirmed a sigmoid colon tumor, necessitating resection and anastomosis. Histopathological analysis revealed viable Schistosoma ova with granulomatous inflammation, confirming colonic schistosomiasis. The patient recovered well postoperatively and received praziquantel therapy. This case underscores the importance of early schistosomiasis treatment to prevent severe complications, including granuloma formation and intestinal obstruction. It also highlights the diagnostic challenges of intestinal schistosomiasis, which can mimic neoplastic conditions. Enhanced screening, timely praziquantel administration, and improved public health interventions are crucial in endemic areas to mitigate disease progression and long\u2010term morbidity.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ccr3.70681","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,30]],"date-time":"2025-07-30T04:44:56Z","timestamp":1753850696000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Sigmoid Schistosomiasis Granuloma Manifested as a Large Painless Supra\u2010Pubic Mass: A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2343-4982","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rawa","family":"Badri","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Mycetoma Research Centre  Khartoum Sudan"},{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, University of Khartoum  Khartoum Sudan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Safa","family":"Abdalrhim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sudanese Medical Specialization Board  Khartoum Sudan"},{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, National Ribat University  Khartoum Sudan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Aymen","family":"Hamid","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, University of Kassala  Kassala Sudan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ahmed","family":"Salah Aldeen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery New Halfa Teaching Hospital  Kassala Sudan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ahmed","family":"Tahir","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery New Halfa Teaching Hospital  Kassala Sudan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mohamad Osama","family":"Ahmad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery New Halfa Teaching Hospital  Kassala Sudan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,29]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_12_2_1","first-page":"110","article-title":"Epidemiology of Schistosomiasis Among Villagers of the New Halfa Agricultural Scheme, Sudan","volume":"11","author":"Afifi A.","year":"2016","journal-title":"Iranian Journal of Parasitology"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12980\/jclm.5.2017J6-247"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/cei.12230"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JCM.01402-16"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1752-1947-8-331"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/nu14163318"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3402\/jchimp.v6.33114"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2991\/dsahmj.k.200514.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-3468(97)90725-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2147\/IMCRJ.S372186"}],"container-title":["Clinical Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/ccr3.70681","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,3]],"date-time":"2025-09-03T11:11:26Z","timestamp":1756897886000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/ccr3.70681"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,29]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"8","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025,8]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/ccr3.70681"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/ccr3.70681","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["2050-0904","2050-0904"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"2050-0904"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2050-0904"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,29]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2024-10-29","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-06-19","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-07-29","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}],"article-number":"e70681"}}
