description Dengue fever can lead to a range of symptoms, including severe manifestations such as dengue hemorrhagic fever. We report a rare case of severe dengue with hemorrhagic pancreatitis and pseudocyst formation in a 28-year-old woman. Initially presenting with fever, abdominal pain, and gastrointestinal symptoms, the patient developed worsening pain, vomiting, and an abdominal mass. Imaging revealed a pancreatic mass, and elevated amylase and lipase confirmed pancreatitis. Interventional radiology drained the hemorrhagic fluid from the suspected pseudocyst, leading to patient improvement and eventual discharge. This uncommon complication of acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis in dengue fever has not been previously documented.
