摘要：

An unusual case of the tumoral form of cerebellar Schistosomiasis mansoni, in a 15 year-old male diagnosed by biopsy, with neurological signs and symptoms 60 days prior to surgery.. Computerized tomography show a hyperdense expanding lesion located in cerebellum, suggesting glioma. Histopathological examination showed numerous S. mansoni ova involved by granulomatous inflammation in necrotic-exudative phase, located mainly in the internal, granular layer of the cerebellum, creating a pseudotumor in the cerebellar vermis and a recent hemorrhage in the trunk. The areas of granulomas were measured.
