description Dengue fever is an arboviral infection spread by the Aedes mosquito with a wide spectrum of presentations encompassing simple flu-like illness to hemorrhagic manifestations. Hemorrhagic complications range from simple petechiae and purpura to gastrointestinal bleeding, hematuria, and severe central nervous system (CNS) bleeds. Herein we present a case of a 38-year-old male with dengue fever along with its hemorrhagic manifestations. Additionally, we conducted an extensive review of the literature to elucidate pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of hemorrhagic manifestations in dengue fever.
