Here are two cases of recurring ovale malaria in Sarawak, Malaysia, that are likely relapses that occurred 1-2 months after successful treatment of the initial imported falciparum malaria with artemisinin-based combined therapy. The patients have no history or recollection of previous malaria episodes. These cases add to the limited evidence on the relapsing nature of , after a febrile episode. In regions where is not known to be autochthonous, active follow-up of treated imported malaria patients is highly recommended following their return, particularly to areas nearing or having achieved elimination.
以下是马来西亚沙捞越发生的两例卵形疟复发病例，很可能是在青蒿素为基础的联合疗法成功治疗初始输入性恶性疟后 1-2 个月发生的复发。患者无先前疟疾发作的病史或记忆。这些病例增加了在发热发作后卵形疟具有复发性的有限证据。在未知本地存在卵形疟的地区，强烈建议在输入性疟疾患者返回后对其进行积极随访，特别是返回接近消除或已经实现消除的地区。
