  ABSTRACT: Schistosomiasis is a chronic disease, and remains a major public health problem. It holds second place among parasitic endemics in the world. Schistosoma can infect various organs through the blood vessels. The genital form affects at least 16 million women in endemic areas, and the uterine cervix is the most common site. Two cases of cervical cancer associated with schistosomiasis of the cervix are presented. The aim of this study is to discuss the epidemiological, clinical and histopathological features. Both of the patients lived in Mahanjaga, aged respectively 57 and 43 years old. They complained of uterine bleeding disorder and presented cauliflower lesions with ulceration of the uterine cervix that extended to the vagina in one case. They were undergone cervical biopsies. The diagnosis was, in both cases, invasive, well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma with cervical schistosomiasis.
