Misdiagnosis of imported falciparum malaria from African areas due to an increased prevalence of pfhrp2/pfhrp3 gene deletion: the Djibouti case

1 Jan 2020

Abstract excerpt

Following the diagnosis of a falciparum malaria case imported from Djibouti and not detected by a pfHRP2-based rapid diagnostic test (RDT), we investigated the prevalence of the pfhrp2/pfhrp3-deleted parasites in Djibouti using 378 blood samples collected between January and May 2019, from Djiboutian patients with suspected malaria. Malaria diagnosis by quantitative PCR confirmed the presence of Plasmodium...
