Dengue Fever Associated with Occulomotor Palsy: A Case Report
Dr. Boddepalli Madhuri, Dr Umashankar
Abstract: Dengue fever, a mosquito - borne viral infection, is known for its diverse clinical manifestations. In this case report, we present a rare case of dengue fever associated with occulomotor palsy, a condition characterized by dysfunction of the third cranial nerve. A 32 - year - old male presented with acute fever, severe headache, and diplopia. Laboratory investigations confirmed dengue virus infection. Neurological assessment revealed occulomotor palsy, which is an unusual complication of dengue fever. The patient received supportive care and antipyretics, and his symptoms gradually improved over the course of two weeks. This case highlights the importance of considering dengue fever as a potential etiology for neurological complications, even in regions where it is not endemic.
