We report a highly probable case of moderately severe blackwater fever. A French woman, living in Guinea Bissau, was used to taking self-medication halofantrine for malaria. On this occasion, she felt unusual chills and pyrexia after a non documented bout of malaria, followed by nausea, then
Blackwater fever (BWF) is a severe clinical syndrome, characterized by intravascular hemolysis, hemoglobinuria, and acute renal failure that is classically seen in European expatriates chronically exposed to Plasmodium falciparum and irregularly taking quinine. BWF virtually disappeared after 1950,
The first case of blackwater fever was reported in Cuban medical literature. It is an uncommon complication of paludism due to Plasmodium falciparum, characterized by fever, hemoglobinuria, and kidney failure, with dramatic development and high mortality. The patient came from the People's Republic
Blackwater fever (BWF) is a rare but serious complication of malaria that is a consequence of antimalarial treatment. Its prevalence seems to have increased. Its diagnosis is based on clinical symptoms and urine color. We report on 4 BWF cases admitted to the infectious diseases
This is a report of a case of blackwater fever in a 28-year-old Nigerian man who was admitted to hospital with fever, jaundice and passing dark urine. Abdominal examination revealed splenomegaly and an examination of the peripheral smear of the patient showed the ring form of the trophozoites of

We describe the prevalence and outcome of BWF among trial participants and compare the prevalence of 3
Sixty cases of P. falciparum and 165 cases of P. vivax were studied clinically along with species identification of parasite after examination of the blood slide by experts at Calcutta. It was observed that malaria had been changing its clinical profile. The classic paroxysm is evident only in 40%
Clinical details and present day problems encountered in 425 cases of falciparum malaria (PF) are reported. 10.11% had taken chloroquine prior to reporting to us. Parasitic count done in 23.05% cases lacked correlation with severity of disease. Pattern of fever varied markedly but 5.4% were afebrile
Development of complications is very common among the patients suffering from Plasmodium falciparum infection. A total of 64 patients of Plasmodium falciprum infections were admitted to the District Hospital, Ukhrul, during the period of 1st May 1996 to 15th June 1999; 9.37% patients do not develop
Malaria is still one of the most important vector-borne diseases in Malaysia, particularly in remote areas. This retrospective study was carried out to find the prevalence of malaria among patients admitted to UMMC Kuala Lumpur, from 1994-2003. A total of 86 malaria cases were analyzed. Most cases
OBJECTIVE
