Postmalaria Neurological Syndrome: Two Cases from The Gambia
2003
Clinical Infectious Diseases
We describe 2 patients with severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria whose convalescence was complicated by fever, with acute confusion and acalculia in one patient and a triad of myoclonus, tremor, and dysphasia in the other. Inflammatory changes were found in cerebrospinal fluid samples. Postmalaria neurological syndrome was diagnosed in each patient, and a therapeutic response to oral corticosteroids was seen in the second patient.
