Acute hemorrhagic necrotizing pancreatitis in falciparum malaria.

Malaria is a pathology caused by a parasite called Plasmodium, characteristic of tropical countries. The most frequent symptomatology includes cerebral malaria, jaundice, convulsive crisis, anemia, hypoglycemia, kidney failure and metabolic asidosis, among others. We are presenting the case of a patient diagnosed with malaria who suffered from acute necrotizing hemorrhagic pancreatitis and evolved poorly, as an example of this combination of symptoms, rarely found in our country.
