A young woman living in a malaria endemic area in West Africa, was contaminated twice with placental infection by Plasmodium falciparum, in two successive pregnancies. No parasites were observed on blood smears both in mother peripheral blood and in cord blood. A parasitemia was described in the intervillous space in the placental. The first placental infection was attributed to a febrile illness ten days before the end of gestation. No reliable symptoms of malaria were found for the second infection. Treatment for fever during pregnancy were given, at 6 and 9 months for the first gestation, and at 4 months for the second gestation. Investigations are correlated with the age of the two placental infections, the second infection is a very young and synchronous parasitemia. No foetal diseases, no low birth weight o congenital malaria were observed on newborns during the both gestations.
