[Post-malaria neurological syndrome complicating a Plasmodium falciparum malaria in Madagascar]. / Syndrome neurologique postpaludisme compliquant un paludisme simple à Plasmodium falciparum à Madagascar.

ABSTRACT

Post-malaria neurological syndrome is a rare complication of malaria. Typically, it occurs in case of severe malaria. Here we report a case in a Malagasy patient presenting a non-severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria complicated by post-malaria neurological syndrome. The management of such a syndrome is radically different from non-severe malaria. No specific treatment is needed.
