The author's relieve the increase of number of the cases of malaria verified during the previous years in Italy, in subjects coming from malaria regions. The social and medical implications of this phenomenon are remarked. Epidemiology, pathology, immunology, clinical features and therapy of "imported malaria" are briefly elucidated. The new refined methods for the diagnosis (serological tests: Immunofluorescence - FAT and IFA - Enzyme linked immuno-sorbent assay - Elisa - Radio-immuno assay, Merozoite inhibition in culture) are described. The elaboration of a human malaria vaccine is analysed theoretically and practically. The imported malaria is a disease that every physician must recognize and treat.
Two liveborn triploid infants are described. The phenotype agrees, in the first case, with that reported in the other observations of the literature. In the second case, hydranencephaly was associated with ambiguous genitalia. Cytogenetic studies, made on cultivated leucocytes, showed triploid number of morphologically normal chromosomes; and constitution 69, XXY in the first case. Mosaicism were found in the second child, with constitution 46XY/69XXY. It is remarked the usefulness of an early diagnosis in order to the genetic counseling.
