Abstract

We report a case of an African patient with sickle cell trait who was diagnosed in Spain with B-cell lymphoma. Blood smears were negative for malaria, and no plasmodium antigens were detected in the blood. To treat his lymphoma, the patient underwent chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation. Following a splenectomy due to a worsening condition, he developed clinical malaria with detectable parasitemia. This case suggests that the humoral response and parasite removal by the spleen may afford protection from overt disease and may even help maintain subclinical human reservoirs of the disease.
