ABSTRACT
In recent years, increasing cases of Plasmodium vivax complications had been reported all over the world. This former benign Plasmodium species is now recognized to be one of the human malaria parasites that can produce severe disease. In this article, we report two cases of sub-microscopic P. vivax malaria confirmed by PCR. Both patients were asymptomatic before treatment. They showed unusual presentations few days after initiation of antimalarial treatment. Both patients had subsequently completed antimalarial treatment and recovered completely.
