Abstract

The author's relieve the increase of number of the cases of malaria verified during the previous years in Italy, in subjects coming from malaria regions. The social and medical implications of this phenomenon are remarked. Epidemiology, pathology, immunology, clinical features and therapy of "imported malaria" are briefly elucidated. The new refined methods for the diagnosis (serological tests: Immunofluorescence - FAT and IFA - Enzyme linked immuno-sorbent assay - Elisa - Radio-immuno assay, Merozoite inhibition in culture) are described. The elaboration of a human malaria vaccine is analysed theoretically and practically. The imported malaria is a disease that every physician must recognize and treat.
