Schistosoma japonicum is the most widespread schistosoma in the world. Although gastrointestinal system involvement with S japonicum appears to be considerably common, cerebral schistosomiasis is not frequent. Cerebral schistosomiasis japonica intestinal and hepatosplenic involvement is more rare. We collected 2 cases of cerebral schistosomiasis identified by pathological diagnosis, lacking extracranial involvement. In addition, one of them had multiple lesions, which was also rare.
