That is a rate prevalence of 0. 95 % and 39 cases of Schistosoma haematobium have been recorded. That is a rate prevalence of 0.35 %. Methodical treatment per os of infested subjects by Ambilhar and the control of intermediate host by molluscicidal no toxic to human and environment are measures to take immediately.

Abstract
Malacological and epidemiological investigations have been done in Katana Health Zone during the period from 2001 to 2011. The results shown that the schistosomiasis exists and constitutes a problem of health in this region. A total of 189,475 stools examinations and 11,000 of urines done during the ten years passed; 1,904 cases of schistosomiasis due to Schistosoma mansoni have been observed. That is a rate prevalence of 0. 95 % and 39 cases of Schistosoma haematobium have been recorded. That is a rate prevalence of 0.35 %. Methodical treatment per os of infested subjects by Ambilhar and the control of intermediate host by molluscicidal no toxic to human and environment are measures to take immediately.

Abstract: (french)
Des nombreuses enquêtes, tant malacologiques qu'épidémiologiques, ont été faites dans la Zone de Santé de Katana durant la période de 2001 à 2011. Les résultats ont montré que la Bilharziose existe et constitue un problème de santé dans cette Zone. Sur un total de 189475 échantillons de selles et 11000 d'urines examinés pendant les dix ans passés, on note 1804 cas de schistosomiase à Schistosoma mansoni observés, soit un taux de prévalence de 0,95 % et 39 cas de Schistosoma haematobium, soit un taux de prévalence de 0,35 %. Pour cela, un traitement méthodique per os des sujets infestés par l'Ambilhar et la destruction des vecteurs par des molluscicides chimiques non toxiques pour l'homme et pour l'environnement sont des mesures à prendre sans délai.
Author Keywords: Prévalence, Schistosoma mansoni, Schistosoma haematobium, Katana, RD Congo.
