Severe malaria causes nearly one million deaths annually in endemic areas and is a public health priority worldwide. Severity associated with the occurrence of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a well-known complication of infection with Plasmodium falciparum and can reach 25% of infected adults. However, ARDS is less often described with other Plasmodium species. We report the case of a young Moroccan soldier who died in an array of ARDS related to malaria of Plasmodium ovale 7 months after his return from an endemic country.
重症疟疾每年在流行地区导致近100万人死亡,是全球公共卫生的重点关注对象。与急性呼吸窘迫综合征(ARDS)发生相关的严重程度是恶性疟原虫感染的一种众所周知的并发症,在受感染的成年人中可达25%。然而,其他疟原虫种类引发ARDS的情况较少被描述。我们报告了一名年轻摩洛哥士兵的病例,他从一个流行国家返回7个月后,死于与卵形疟原虫疟疾相关的一系列ARDS。
