  • Title: Concurrent Infection With Dengue Type 4 and Plasmodium falciparum Acquired in Haiti.
    Author: Serre N, Franco L, Sulleiro E, Rubio JM, Zarzuela F, Molero F, Tenorio A.
    Journal: J Travel Med; 2015; 22(5):345-7. PubMed ID: 26212051.
    Abstract:
    We report one laboratory-confirmed coinfection by dengue type 4 and Plasmodium falciparum imported to Spain from Haiti. Diagnosis was made by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), serology, quantitative buffy coat, and thick blood smear. In areas where both infections are present, diagnosis of both diseases should be considered because a delay in the treatment of malaria could be fatal.
