The spectrum of dengue infection varies from dengue fever to more severe forms such as dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and dengue shock syndrome (DSS). In DHF bleeding may be overt (external) or internal. At time bleeding can occur at unusual sites. We report one such case of DHF in which bleeding
Dengue fever, also known as breakbone fever, is an infectious tropical disease caused by the Dengue virus. It is associated with a number of complications, which are well documented. However, Dengue fever associated with rectus sheath hematoma (RSH) is a very rare complication. Only one case report
This study aims to describe the unique characteristics of absorption fever in patients with a hematoma after percutaneous renal biopsy (PRB) and distinguish it from secondary infection of hematoma.We retrospectively studied 2639 percutaneous renal biopsies of native kidneys. We compared the clinical
BACKGROUND
Neurological complications are increasingly being reported in dengue epidemics. Intra-spinal hematomas are rare and those associated with dengue fever are still rarer with only one being reported in literature.
METHODS
We report a case of dengue fever presenting with acute onset
A 79-year-old woman presented with fever and general malaise. Examination revealed hepatic injury, thrombocytopenia, skin lesions, and regional lymphadenopathy; severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) was diagnosed using polymerase chain reaction. The patient developed impaired
Muscle hematomas are rare complications in dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). We report a case of 58-year-old-female admitted with dengue fever who developed spontaneous rectus sheath hematoma complicating DHF. She presented with progressive thrombocytopenia with platelet count reaching 13000/μL at its
Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is an acute viral disease characterized by fever, hemorrhage and renal failure. Among the various hemorrhagic complications of HFRS, spontaneous rupture of the kidney and perirenal hematoma are very rare findings. We report here on a case of HFRS
Dengue fever may present with atypical manifestations. Here we report a 47 year-old male presenting with fever and sore throat for 2 days, followed by epigastric pain and tarry stool for 4 days. The esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed multiple ulcers with a nodular margin in the duodenal bulb and
A 14-year-old girl was diagnosed with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) with homozygous for M694V mutation of the MEFV gene and was started on colchicine therapy 4 years before admission to our hospital. She was uncompliant to therapy and was admitted to a local hospital with complaining of fever,
BACKGROUND
Neurological manifestations in dengue fever occur in <1 % of the patients and known to be due to multisystem dysfunction secondary to vascular leakage. Occurrence of wide spread cerebral haemorrhages with subdural hematoma during the leakage phase without profound thrombocytopenia and
Hematoma as an isolated cause of temperature elevation in adult patients is rarely reported. We describe a patient with a large hematoma involving his right leg that caused significant pyrexia. The computerized axial tomography findings are discussed, as well as the possible mechanisms responsible
Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a disease that causes systemic arteriovenous thrombosis through a series of immune reactions, which leads to multiple organ injury. The purpose of this study was to introduce that diagnosis and treatment of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia with A 54-year-old female patient had a sudden onset of febrile illness following which she developed low backache and sudden onset paraplegia with urinary retention. Her hemogram, biochemistry, and coagulation profile was within normal limits. Her dengue serology was positive for IgG antibodies but
