“…The most common age group affected in our study was 20-39 years (53%). [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39] This is comparable to the study done by Neeraja et al in 2004, in Hyderabad. [18] The mean age in the present study is 30.45 years.…”

“…These arrhythmias are associated to syncope and even sudden death. [35][36][37] In present study, out of 211 dengue patients, abnormal ECG findings were in 57 patients (27.01%), most common ECG finding was sinus bradycardia in 18 patients (31.57%), next was sinus tachycardia in 14 patients (24.56%), and T wave inversion in V1-V4 and V2-V5 was in 4 and 2 patients respectively. ST depression in V1-V4 and V1-V6 was in 6 patients each, generalised T inversion in 6 patients and low voltage in 7 patient, ST-T changes in V2-V5 and V3-V6 both were in 4 patients each, generalised ST elevation in 1 patient and T wave inversion in lead 2, 3 were in 6 patient.…”

Dengue is a prevalent arthropod-borne viral disease in tropical and subtropical areas of the globe. Dengue clinical manifestations include asymptomatic infections; undifferentiated fever; dengue fever, which is characterized by fever, headache, retroorbital pain, myalgia, and arthralgia; and a severe form of the disease denominated dengue haemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome, characterized by haemoconcentration, thrombocytopenia, and bleeding tendency. However, atypical manifestations, such as liver, central nervous system, and cardiac involvement, have been increasingly reported. We report an atypical and rare presentation of dengue disease marked by a dramatic and fatal cardiogenic shock due to acute myocarditis. Histopathological analysis of heart tissue showed several multifocal areas of muscle necrosis and intense interstitial oedema associated with clusters of virus particles inside the cardiomyocytes and in the interstitial space, providing evidence of a possible direct action of dengue virus on myocardium.

Análisis descriptivo del compromiso de órganos en niños con dengue grave en Neiva, Colombia Objective: To describe the affectation caused by dengue in organs such as the myocardium, the liver and the central nervous system (CNS) in children from Neiva, Colombia. Results: Out of 930 children, 105 were classified as severe dengue (SD) and, of these, 19 had affected organs. The myocardium was the most compromised organ (14 cases), followed by the liver (4 cases) and the CNS (1 case). Materials and methods: Conclusion:Clinical involvement of the myocardium, liver or CNS was observed in 18% of the cases of children with SD. A timely diagnosis and treatment of this pathology in children is necessary.
