title: [Babesiasis, pediatric malaria: does confusion exist in Africa?].
abstract: The authors describe a case of febrile disease acquired by a nursling in Africa: was it induced by Pl. falciparum or by Babesia sp.? In spite of numerous microscopic and serological appraisals from veterinary and medical authorities, it is difficult to state definitively this subject, but it is more probably a babesiosis of canine or rodent origin.
