Abstract
Neurological manifestations like encephalitis, especially hemorrhagic encephalitis, are rarely described in dengue fever (DF), and the gamut may affect any part of the central or peripheral nervous system. Herein, we report two cases from Northern India, presenting with fever and altered sensorium, subsequently diagnosed with DF. Imaging studies revealed hemorrhagic encephalitis in both of them but one of them had a grave outcome, unfolding the fatal nature of the disease. The report enlightens DF as an unusual etiology of encephalitis and the importance of considering the infirmity as a differential in patients with neurological manifestations.
