dc.description.abstract | Association of symmetric peripheral gangrene (SPG) with falciparum malaria infection is a relatively uncommon clinical entity. Here we report a case of complicated falciparum malaria with SPG involving both lower limbs from the mid-calf downwards, probably due to antibody mediated vasculitis. | en_US |
