Abstract

Background and Aim: Dengue viral infection has become a major public health concern
worldwide. This situation worsens when accompanied by other comorbidities. There is a
lack of published literature on dengue viral infection in pediatric patients with kidney failure
undergoing maintenance hemodialysis.
Case Presentation: We report the case of a child with kidney failure who underwent
maintenance hemodialysis and presented with dengue shock syndrome.
Conclusion: Prompt diagnosis, close monitoring, and individualized treatment regimens are
crucial for patient survival. A significant dilemma exists in managing such cases that may
guide physicians in the future.
