Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Research (IJAR) - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 11
Abstract
Abdominal pain with dengue fever are often a diagnostic challenge. Typically, pain is localised to the right iliac fossa pain. Patients can even present with acute abdomen. we tend to report a case of a lady with dengue fever and right iliac fossa pain. The designation of acute appendicitis was created only once four days of admission. associate appendicular mass was noted throughout CT scan. The patient recovered afterward with conservative management . options suggestive of acute appendicitis are persistent right iliac fossa pain, localized peritonism, persistent fever and leucocytosis. repeated clinical assessment is important to avoid missing a coinciding diagnosing like acute appendicitis.
