Popis: Seventy-one cases of malaria were diagnosed in the hospital of Dunkerque from 1979 to 1990. Forty-five patients have been infected in the Comores islands. Among the 24 other imported cases, 17 (71%) have been contaminated in Western or Central Africa. One case of congenital malaria and one of malaria acquired by blood transfusion are also reported. Plasmodium falciparum was detected in 84.5% of the patients. The four human species were found among the Comorians. Two cases with abnormal forms of Plasmodium vivax were observed.
