title: [Renal changes in malaria].
abstract: The renal complications in course of malaria have notably increased in number during the last years, as well as the cases of malaria in the world. This subject and a case of malaria in the world. This subject and a case of renal complication in course of malaria we could recently observe led us to re-examine the papers in which this problem was debated. Only the Pl. malaria and the Pl. falciparum can cause renal complications, as the first can produce a nephrosic syndrome and the second an acute renal insufficiency functional or organic, or a glomerulonephritis more often acute transitory, which can rarely develop into a nephrosic syndrome or into an acute renal organic insufficiency. Then the various physiopathologic causes of the acute renal insufficiency, of the glomerulonephritis, of the nephrosic syndrome are described, followed by a case description of an acute renal functional insufficiency in course of malaria caused by Pl. falciparum.
