The spleen is enlarged as may also be the liver. Twisting of the pedicle of the spleen or its rupture from even slight blows may necessitate surgical intervention. There is anorexia and alimentary tract disturbances. A very important feature of malarial cachexia may be the occurrence of haemorrhages, particularly serious being those from the retinal vessels. It is probable that hookworm infection has frequently been confused with the anaemia of malarial cachexia as in both of these conditions we may have a high-grade anaemia with swelling about the ankles, palpitation of the heart and shortness of breath. Some authorities have recently called attention to splenic enlargement in hookworm disease, but this is not generally accepted. There may be also ascites in malaria. Urobilinuria is an important sign in malaria where other causes for red cell destruction are excluded. =The Sequelae of Malaria.=—The anaemia and other manifestations of malarial cachexia have been described above. The enlarged spleen not only is a source of danger from rupture but it may cause sensations of pain or tension. The skin of those with chronic malaria tends to ulcerate from slight wounds and phagedenic lesions may occur. There may be various disorders of the nervous system varying from mental confusion or lack of mental concentration to melancholia. Neuritis and possibly peripheral neuritis may have origin in repeated attacks of malignant tertian malaria. Ulceration of the cornea is the most frequent of the ocular sequelae although even this is rare. It only occurs after many relapses. It is painful, heals slowly and tends to recur with relapses. Iritis may accompany it. Abortions are frequent unless the malaria is adequately treated. Symptoms in Detail _General Appearance._—In the cold stage of the benign infections the face is pinched and blue to become decidedly flushed when the hot stage sets in. In malarial cachexia there is an earthy color with the pigmentation more marked about the face and knuckles. In the algid forms of pernicious malaria the skin is pale, cold and clammy, in a measure simulating cholera. Herpes labialis is very common in the benign infections, but less so in the malignant tertian ones. Jaundice is a feature of bilious remittent fever.
