Abstract
Cardiovascular complications are known to occur during dengue fever including both tachyarrhythmias and bradyarrythmias. We report a case of 15 year old boy with severe dengue fever who had rhythm disturbance showing a 2:1 heart block with hemodynamic instability during acute phase of illness. The child responded to atropine and did not require any further intervention requiring a pacemaker.
