Abstract

Malaria is a global public health problem and is associated with high mortality rates in many parts of the world. The number of cases of imported malaria in non-endemic regions is increasing every year. The article presents a clinical case of successful treatment of severe tropical malaria complicated by multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. The complex use of adequate and timely antimalarial, antibacterial therapy, correction of coagulopathy, anemia, thrombocytopenia, as well as the use of extracorporeal hemocorrection methods played a decisive role in the successful outcome of the disease in a patient with severe malaria. The clinical case demonstrates the difficulties of diagnosing malaria in a non-endemic region, as well as the importance of a timely multidisciplinary approach in the treatment of severe malaria.
