Abstract

Malaria is an exotic complication in liver transplants patients. It can be acquired either by transfusion of blood products or through the transplanted organ. Infections caused by Plasmodium spp are unusual in liver transplants; to date, only four cases have been reported in the literature. Herein we have presented a case of Plasmodium vivax in a liver transplant patient. This diagnosis must be excluded in febrile transplant patients in endemic areas, especially during the first 2 months. An epidemiological history relevant for malaria both in the donor and in the recipient must be routinely included with screening tests.

摘要

疟疾是肝移植患者的一种罕见并发症。它可通过输血制品或经移植器官获得。疟原虫属引起的感染在肝移植中并不常见；迄今为止，文献中仅报道了4例。在此我们报告了1例肝移植患者感染间日疟原虫的病例。对于流行地区的发热移植患者，尤其是在最初2个月内，必须排除这种诊断。在进行筛查检测时，必须常规纳入供体和受体与疟疾相关的流行病学史。
