description | Dengue infection is the leading cause of illness and death in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. The common complications associated with dengue fever are usual hematological abnormalities, shock, and organ failure. The neurological complications of dengue are uncommon.

We report an uncommon case of hypokalemic quadriparesis with dengue that had a favorable outcome. |
