Abstract

Dengue fever, caused by the dengue virus transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, is a significant global health concern, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions. We present a case of a 7-year-old child with an atypical presentation of dengue fever, highlighting diagnostic challenges, management strategies, and the importance of clinical suspicion in pediatric cases. This report underscores the need for comprehensive assessment and timely intervention in children with unusual manifestations of dengue fever.
