Dihydroartemisinin–piperaquine treatment failure of uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria infection in a traveller
Résumé
We report a late dihydroartemisinin–piperaquine treatment failure of uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria infection in a traveller without evidence of drug resistance. The correct treatment intake was confirmed, isolates drugs susceptibility was confirmed by RSA-PSA and chemosusceptibility. No molecular markers associated with resistance to artemisinin derivatives or piperaquine were identified.
