title: Two cases of late Plasmodium ovale presentation in military personnel.
abstract: Only a few late cases of Plasmodium ovale presentation have been reported in literature. We describe two cases of late P. ovale presentation occurring in two French military personnel, 47 and 69 months, respectively, after a stay in Côte d'Ivoire and in the absence of new intercurrent malaria exposure.
