Four hundred forty\u2010one patients underwent liver transplantation at our institute, and 14 did so for schistosomiasis. The survival of patients who underwent transplantation for schistosomiasis was compared with that of patients who underwent transplantation for other liver diseases. Survival curves were drawn via the Kaplan\u2010Meier method and were compared with the log\u2010rank test. <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05 was considered significant. All 14 patients were male, and the average age was 56.8\u2009\u00b1\u20098.4 years. The average Model for End\u2010Stage Liver Disease score was 18.2\u2009\u00b1\u20095.6, and the average Child\u2010Pugh score was 10.6\u2009\u00b1\u20091.2. All patients had splenomegaly; pretransplant variceal bleeding occurred in 7 patients (50%), and portal vein thrombosis was diagnosed in 5 patients (36%). Patient survival was 75% 1 year after transplantation and 75% at the end of follow\u2010up because no patients were lost after the first year. Patients who underwent transplantation for other causes achieved survival rates of 86% and 76% 1 and 10 years after transplantation, respectively. There was no significant survival difference between the 2 groups (<jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.66). All patients who survived the early posttransplant period had functioning liver grafts with no reported diagnoses of schistosomiasis in the new grafts. In conclusion, liver transplantation for patients with schistosomiasis has a favorable outcome with no risk of reactivation. <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Liver Transpl 21:96\u2010100,
