Abstract

Three cases ofPlasmodium vivax infection in the neonatal period are described. Two cases were considered to be of congenital or postnatal infection and one case as post-tranfusional malaria. Though a rare occurrence in the neonatal period, the possibility of malaria should be entertained in the differential diagnosis of any pyrexial illness, hepatosplenomegaly or any progressive anaemia.
