In 2010, there were roughly 219 million cases of malaria reported worldwide resulting in an estimated 660,600 deaths [1]. In contrast, the total number of cases according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the United States (USA) was only 1691 [2]. Of those, 1688 were cases of imported malaria [2]. This is the highest number of cases reported in U.S. since 1980 [2]. Here, we describe a case of imported malaria and conduct a retrospective case series at four Connecticut (CT) hospitals in order to describe the demographics of imported malaria and to identify potential barriers to timely diagnosis and treatment.
2010年，全球报告的疟疾病例约有2.19亿例，估计导致660,600人死亡[1]。相比之下，美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）报告的美国疟疾病例总数仅为1691例[2]。其中，1688例为输入性疟疾病例[2]。这是自1980年以来美国报告的病例数最多的一年[2]。在此，我们描述一例输入性疟疾病例，并在康涅狄格州（CT）的四家医院进行回顾性病例系列研究，以描述输入性疟疾的人口统计学特征，并确定及时诊断和治疗的潜在障碍。
