  • Title: Dengue hemorrhagic fever: a rare presentation as atypical acute subdural hematoma.
    Author: Kumar R, Prakash O, Sharma BS.
    Journal: Pediatr Neurosurg; 2008; 44(6):490-2. PubMed ID: 19066441.
    Abstract:
    The risk of dengue is increasing due to population migration. It is the most important arboviral infection in the world, with an estimated 100 million cases per year and 2.5 billion people at risk. Generally recovery is the rule, and hemorrhagic complications causing encephalopathy are rare but fatal. We report an unusual case of hemorrhagic encephalopathy in a child with dengue hemorrhagic fever occurring during convalescence who made a successful recovery following surgery.
