Abstract

Dengue fever is caused by dengue virus, which has four different serotypes and is transmitted by the Aedes mosquitos. This disease is endemic to Southeast Asian countries, including Nepal. Liver involvement in dengue is a crucial feature, and the effect ranges from an asymptomatic rise in liver enzymes to the development of acute liver failure. Acute liver failure often results in multiorgan dysfunction including hemodynamic instability, renal failure, cerebral edema, and even death because of shock. Prompt diagnosis and management are necessary to prevent complications. However, there is no proven proper treatment for this condition, and the only treatment modality is to prevent the symptoms. We presented the case of a young female with dengue fever who developed a life-threatening acute liver failure because of dengue shock syndrome.
