Abstract

Congenital malaria is the least known and a very neglected manifestation of malaria. Most of the information is limited to case reports in children born to non-immune women. With the use of molecular techniques, congenital infection is being detected among infants born to women in endemic countries. Also there is a lack of consensus on the clinical guidelines for its management. More research is needed about this subject.

Özet

Konjenital sıtma, sıtmanın çok az bilinen ve ihmal edilen bir alanıdır. Bu konudaki bilgiler daha çok immun olmayan annelerden doğan çocukların vaka sunumlarına dayanmaktadır. Moleküler tekniklerin kullanımıyla, konjenital enfeksiyon endemik ülkelerde kadınlardan doğan infantlarda saptanmaya başlanmıştır. Ayrıca, tedaviye yaklaşımda klinik kılavuzlar açısından konsensus eksikliği bulunmaktadır.Bu konu hakkında daha fazla araştırmaya ihtiyaç bulunmaktadır.
