Typical enlarged spleen of a Malaria patient, c1890
Typical enlarged spleen of a Malaria patient, c1890. Malaria is caused a parasitic protozoa transmitted by the Anopheles mosquito. Until the 1930s the only effective treatment was the drug Quinine, an alkaloid obtained from the bark of the Cinchona tree, native of South America. It is also called Peruvian bark for its country of origin, or Jesuits bark as it was brought to Europe by Spanish missionary priests. From Les Grands Maux et les Grands Remedes (The Principal Illnesses and Their Remedies) by Jules Rengade. (Paris, c1890)
