Dengue hemorrhagic shock and disseminated candidiasis.
Dengue fever, one of the common endemic viral fevers, often presents with fever, rash, and mild liver dysfunction. However, plasma leakage induced by dengue virus infection can lead to dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome, and it can cause severe complications including liver failure and encephalopathy. Infection of dengue virus with other pathogens is an unusual but serious compl...
متن کاملDengue Hemorrhagic Fever and Dengue Shock Syndrome
The Dengue virus is an arbovirus, from genus Flavivirus family Flaviviridae. It is a single stranded RNA genome surrounded by an icosahedral nucleocapsid and covered by lipid envelope. Four serotypes: DEN-1, 2, 3, 4 have been identified for the virus. Each serotype provides specific lifetime immunity, but only a shortterm cross-immunity. All serotypes can cause severe and fatal disease. In the ...
متن کاملDengue and dengue hemorrhagic fever.
Continued geographic expansion of dengue viruses and their mosquito vectors has seen the magnitude and frequency of epidemic dengue/dengue hemorrhagic fever (DF/DHF) increase dramatically. More than 200,000,000 infections and over 2 million cases of DHF occur annually, and dengue is one of the most important emerging tropical diseases in the world. Its dramatically increased incidence and geogr...
متن کاملDisseminated miliary cerebral candidiasis.
We present a case of disseminated intracranial infection by Candida albicans in a 5-year-old girl who had fever and a change of consciousness after surgery for complex congenital heart malformation. MR imaging revealed multiple small ring-enhancing hemorrhagic abscesses. One year after antifungal treatment, the abscesses and ventriculomegaly were almost completely resolved. The patient was disc...
متن کاملDengue and dengue hemorrhagic fever.
Dengue fever, a very old disease, has reemerged in the past 20 years with an expanded geographic distribution of both the viruses and the mosquito vectors, increased epidemic activity, the development of hyperendemicity (the cocirculation of multiple serotypes), and the emergence of dengue hemorrhagic fever in new geographic regions. In 1998 this mosquito-borne disease is the most important tro...
