RESUMO
A Field study was done in Kafre El-Bagaur health centre in Monofia Governorate. Urine and stool examination was done for 200 students to select the active urinary Bilharzial cases. 80 students [8 - 16 years old] were found to have urinary Bilharziasis. Microscopic examination for R.B.Cs., pus cells and quantitative detection of protein in urine were done. It was found that there is a correlation between intensity of Schistosoma haematobium infection and the clinical proteinuria, haematuria, and pyuria before treatment. Follow up of the cases one month after treatment with 3 doses of metrifonate [Bilarcil] showed that there was marked reduction in proteinuria, haematuria, and pyuria
