[Recrudescence of imported malaria (apropos of 30 recent cases)]

30 cases of imported malaria were diagnosed in the Laboratoire Central de Parasitologie of the Pitié-Salpêtrière C.H.U. in less than five months. The circumstances of appearance and the conditions of the patients' stay, the difficulties of the clinical diagnosis of the primary invasion, the gravity of P. falciparum attacks and the therapeutic schedules are presented. The accent is placed on the deficiencies of correctly prescribed anti-malaria chemotherapy and on the importance of information and sensitization of travellers.
