A total of 120 school children was included in the study, 84 was suffering of schistosomasis and 36 uninfected. Out of 84 who had schistosomasis 37 (44.05%) showed significant bacteriuria, 47 (55.95%) had insignificant bacteriuria (p.value =0.001). The bacterial isolated including: klebsiella species, Escherichia coli, E.facailis, Salmonella species, Proteus species, and Pseudomonas species. Eshericha coli occurred more frequently 17 (45.95%) than the rest of the bacterial species isolated. The antimicrobial susceptibility test of isolates revealed varying patterns of susceptibilities by all isolates. This study clearly suggests that bacteriuria is schistosomiasis. a potent complication in the management of urinaryotherschistosomiasis and bacterial urinary tract infections
