摘要
We report two cases of pregnancy-associated Plasmodium falciparum malaria discovered fortuitously. These two women were born in Africa and their last visit in an endemic area was more than one year before. It is well known that pregnancy is one of major risks of late onset of P. falciparum malaria. In the two cases reported in this study, clinical signs of malaria were not specific and we will describe the interest to detect more systematically pregnant African women, first arrival immigrants.
