Abstract

Sıtma, Plasmodium türü parazitlerin yol açtığı, genellikle sivrisinekler aracılığıyla bulaşan bir hastalıktır. Türkiye'de sıtma çeşitli klinik şekillerde görülebilir. Bunlar arasında gizli sıtma, maskeli sıtma, sıtma kaşeksisi ve habis sıtma gibi vakalar yer alır. Sıtma nöbetleri bazen diğer hastalıklarla karışabilir. Anafilaktik sıtma vakalarında sıtma nöbetine ek olarak alerjik reaksiyonlar (ürtiker, ödem, astma) görülebilir. Muhiti kanda parazit görülmeyen sıtma vakaları da nadiren ortaya çıkar, burada sıtma belirtileri olmasına rağmen parazit kan örneğinde tespit edilemez.

Türkiye'de Malaryanın Klinik Şekilleri

Abstract

Malaria is a disease caused by Plasmodium parasites, typically transmitted through mosquitoes. In Turkey, malaria manifests in various clinical forms, such as latent malaria, masked malaria, malaria cachexia, and severe malaria. Malaria attacks can sometimes be confused with other diseases. In anaphylactic malaria, allergic reactions like urticaria, edema, and asthma can occur along with malaria symptoms. There are also rare cases of hidden malaria, where the malaria parasite is not detected in the blood despite the presence of symptoms.
