Falciparum malaria with haemorrhagic stroke in a 26-year male patient: report of a rare case

The presented case described a very rare case of a 26-year-old male patient who was diagnosed with left side hemiparesis secondary to a haemorrhagic stroke, associated with P. falciparum malaria. This report highlights the fact that malaria with stroke should be considered a differential diagnosis in a patient presenting with body weakness in a malaria endemic area and in individuals who had travel history to malaria endemic areas.

Abstract

The presented case described a very rare case of a 26-year-old male patient who was diagnosed with left side hemiparesis secondary to a haemorrhagic stroke, associated with P. falciparum malaria. This report highlights the fact that malaria with stroke should be considered a differential diagnosis in a patient presenting with body weakness in a malaria endemic area and in individuals who had travel history to malaria endemic areas.
