Abstract
Parasites are rarely localized only in the urinary system. Schistosoma haematobium infection is very frequent in tropical Africa; it is revealed by a hematuria. Most hydatic cysts are localized in the liver, but a renal infection is possible. Other parasitoses (filariasis, malaria) often result in immune complex glomerulonephritis and are cured by specific treatment of the parasites.
