Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
Abstract: Dengue fever is endemic in countries of south and south-east Asia. Dengue fever may be complicated with dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and dengue shock syndrome (DSS). Owing to the increase in dengue cases, atypical manifestations are also on the rise. The dengue virus, a member of flavivirus group in the family Flaviviridae, is a single-stranded enveloped RNA virus, 30 nm in diameter, which can grow in a variety of mosquitoes and tissue culture. This review collects descriptions of atypical manifestations of dengue fever such as epididymo-orchitis, the second case highlights dengue complicated with left-sided parotitis and third case complicated with rheumatoid-like arthritis.
