We present a case of a primigravid woman who presented with nearly 3 years after she last visited a malaria-endemic region. We review the literature to identify case reports of recrudescent malaria during pregnancy, including those with prolonged latency. Reports of recrudescence of during pregnancy are limited. infection can persist for years. Recrudescence can occur with waning of immunity following departure from endemic areas. Pregnancy, particularly the primigravid state, is a risk factor for severe infection.
我们报告一例初产妇病例,她在最后一次前往疟疾流行地区近3年后出现症状。我们查阅文献以确定孕期复发性疟疾的病例报告,包括潜伏期延长的病例。孕期疟疾复发的报告有限。感染可持续数年。离开流行地区后,随着免疫力下降可能会出现复发。怀孕,尤其是初孕状态,是严重感染的一个危险因素。
