Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis after dengue

Dengue fever, transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, is one of the most common vector-borne disease. Its incidence is increasing steadily worldwide, becoming a major public health problem in the tropical and subtropical zone. Neurological manifestations after dengue are not very common and acute d...

description Dengue fever, transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, is one of the most common vector-borne disease. Its incidence is increasing steadily worldwide, becoming a major public health problem in the tropical and subtropical zone. Neurological manifestations after dengue are not very common and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) following dengue infections is rare with a few cases documented in literature. Clinical characteristics and typical lesions of ADEM on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of brain along with serologic positivity for dengue usually confirm the diagnosis. We report a case of ADEM which developed as a neurological complication of dengue during an epidemic in a 39-year-old woman.
