This study from a series of 80 patients showed that the prevalence rate of malaria increased from 8% before to 15% after surgery in the tropics. The difference was not significant (p < 0.05). The conclusion is that patients should be investigated for malaria parasites before any major surgery; in case of a non infectious post-operative fever, antimalarial drugs should be prescribed only to patients with a positive thick film.
