Title: Artesunate-induced hemolysis in severe complicated malaria – A diagnostic challenge: A case report and literature review of anemia in malaria Cord-id: 9p22ob6x Document date: 2021_7_24
ID: 9p22ob6x
Snippet: Malaria infection, which results due to the parasitic protozoan Plasmodium, has several known etiologies of hemolytic anemia as a possible complication in cases such as concurrent G6PD deficiency, severe parasitemia, or use of parenteral antimalarials. Although artemisinin-based antimalarial therapies are generally well-tolerated, several cases of severe post-artemisinin delayed hemolysis (PADH) have been recently reported, which present a diagnostic challenge, and affect morbidity and mortality
Document: Malaria infection, which results due to the parasitic protozoan Plasmodium, has several known etiologies of hemolytic anemia as a possible complication in cases such as concurrent G6PD deficiency, severe parasitemia, or use of parenteral antimalarials. Although artemisinin-based antimalarial therapies are generally well-tolerated, several cases of severe post-artemisinin delayed hemolysis (PADH) have been recently reported, which present a diagnostic challenge, and affect morbidity and mortality in patients with malarial infection. We highlight the case of a young lady with Plasmodium falciparum severe parasitemia who developed hemolytic anemia after parenteral artesunate therapy.
