摘要：

As the spread of dengue and dengue hemorrhagic fever are increasing, atypical manifestations of dengue, such as dengue encephalitis, dengue myocarditis, and dengue hepatitis and dengue cholecystitis are also on the rise. These manifestations are under-reported because of lack of awareness. Dengue is endemic in India and the last epidemic occurred in Delhi in 2003. We report a case of a 25-year-old female Indian patient who presented to our hospital with complaints of fever and rash. In addition, she developed ascites during her stay in the hospital. She was diagnosed as having dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) with acute hepatitis. She made a complete recovery with supportive management.
