Dengue fever is a potentially life-threatening vector-borne tropical disease caused by a single-stranded positive-sense ribonucleic acid virus belonging to the Flaviviridae family. Outbreaks have increased in severity over the past few years, especially in developing countries in South Asia[1]. While dengue fever is a self-limiting illness in the majority of patients, about 0.5% of patients dev...

OBJECTIVES To describe the epidemiology, clinical features and treatment of dengue fever and dengue shock syndrome. SOURCES To prepare this review, a literature search was made on PubMed and on the World Health Organization (WHO) and PAHO websites using the terms dengue and dengue shock syndrome. This information was complemented with personal practice. SUMMARY OF THE FINDINGS Dengue is the...

This paper reviews the epidemiology and distinguishing features of three viral hemorrhagic fevers (dengue hemorrhagic fever, yellow fever and arenaviral hemorrhagic fever) that have emerged as important public health problems in South America. Although the etiology, natural history and control of the three diseases are different, their clinical manifestations and histopathology findings are sim...

Dengue is caused by virus is also known as break bone fever. Dengue is spread by numerous mosquito species of Aedes group. Dengue attacked mostly in tropical countries. Unfortunately dengue has also becomes dengue hemorrhagic fever, which leads bleed from under skin or nose. It can turn dengue shock disorder which causes substantial shock and bleed. There is no precise cure and no vaccine avail...

Neurologic complications associated with dengue fever are in general unusual. However, recent reports evidence more frequent neurologic alterations. In Mexico, neurologic involvement has not been reported in dengue cases. This report demonstrates the detection of dengue virus in the brain of a fatal case of dengue hemorrhagic fever. Serotype 4 was detected by immunohistochemistry and by RT-PCR ...

Dengue virus (DENV) is a vector-borne viral disease that cause more human morbidity and mortality worldwide than any other arthropod-borne virus. It is estimated that 3.97 billion people living in 128 countries are at risk of dengue, 400 million infections annually, and 96 million asymptomatic cases occurring every year [1-4]. Four closely related dengue serotypes cause the disease: DENV-1 to -...
