Severe malaria not responsive to artemisinin derivatives in man returning from Angola to Vietnam

Emerging Infectious Diseases, Volume 20, No. 7, Year 2014

Resistance to artemisinin derivatives, the most potent antimalarial drugs currently used, has emerged in Southeast Asia and threatens to spread to Africa. We report a case of malaria in a man who returned to Vietnam after 3 years in Angola that did not respond to intravenous artesunate and clindamycin or an oral artemisinin-based combination.
