Article Synopsis
  • Dengue is a viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes, and its symptoms can range from mild illness to severe conditions like dengue shock syndrome and hemorrhagic fever, with some cases showing neurological issues.
  • The neurological complications are thought to arise from the virus's ability to affect the nervous system or due to immune reactions, and a specific MRI pattern called the double-doughnut sign has been seen in some cases.
  • A reported case of dengue encephalitis involved various movement disorders during recovery, and the patient was treated with steroids and benzodiazepines, eventually leading to symptom improvement; however, such movement disorders are rare and usually resolve on their own.
