Abstract
Congenital Malaria is a life threatening infection of neonates occurring as a vertical transmission of malaria during pregnancy or at birth. Recent studies report a high burden of congenital malaria in sub-Saharan Africa. This case series emphasizes that routine checks for malaria parasites in all neonates presenting with fever is paramount in avoiding delays in the diagnosis of congenital malaria and unnecessary use of empiric antibiotics.
