A vivax malaria case in Henan Province was diagnosed as an indigenous case firstly in June 2013, and replased in April 2014. The clinical data of this case were collected and the epidemiological investigation was conducted. The blood samples were examined by Giemsa-stained blood smear, rapid diagnostic test strip (RDT) and nested PCR. This patient stayed at Myanmar for about one week in May 2013, had the symptoms of chills, fever and sweating in June, and was diagnosed as vivax malaria. After treated with artesunate, the symptoms disappeared. The CSP sequence was amplified from the blood samples of the first and second attack, and there was no difference in the central repeat domain of CSP gene. The identity of our two CSP gene sequences to that of Myanmar isolates (GenBank accessssion No. ABS95455, ABS95456) was 95.1% and 100%, while their nucleotide sequence was with 88.8% and 67.1% identity with that of Henan isolates (accessssion No. KP888996, KP889000), respectively. This patient is therefore confirmed as an imported relapse case of Plasmodium vivax infection.
