如果患者在预期的潜伏期之外出现症状，可能会错过由恶性疟原虫引起的疟疾。我们描述了两名患者，他们在访问疟疾流行国家一年多后患上了Pf疟疾。两人都在国际机场工作，但没有确定感染源。
Malaria due to Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) may be missed if patients present with symptoms outside of the expected incubation period. We describe two patients who developed Pf malaria more than one year after visiting malaria-endemic countries. Both worked at an international airport, but no source of infection was identified.
