Methods The data of malaria surveillance,epidemic,prevention and control were collected and analyzed in the districts and counties of Yancheng City from 2011 to 2015. Results From 2011 to 2015,there were 104 imported malaria cases reported,and the most cases(52 cases,50%)were reported from Jianhu County. Most of the cases were males(only 2 females),the average age was 38.8 years,and the occupation was mainly labor service worker abroad(94 cases,97%). The infection source of these cases mainly came from Africa. From 2011 to 2015,151980 fever patients received malaria blood tests,and the positive rate was 0.07%. Falciparum malaria cases were the most(90 cases,86.5%). The confirmed diagnostic rate of malaria within 24 hours in-creased year by year. All the 104 patients received the standardized treatment.
