Abstract
- Malaria includes a global disease burden with approximately 300-500 million cases worldwide annually. Varied symptomatology creates a diagnostic challenge. This is a case report of a stroke rehabilitation facility resident who developed Plasmodium ovale infection, several months post-exposure. Physicians should maintain a broad list of differential diagnoses, thinking beyond the range of common diagnoses.
