Dengue is endemic in Bangladesh and is an emerging infection in many parts of the world. Its clinical manifestations are wide spectrum, may present as mild fever to shock. Muscle hematomas are rare complications in dengue hemorrhagic fever. We report a case of 21-year-old male with dengue hemorrhagic fever who developed right sided iliacus muscle hematoma. He presented with fever, progressive thrombocytopenia and evidence of plasma leakage. During the recovery phase, he developed severe pain in right hip during movement. Diagnosis was confirmed by pelvic computed-tomography scan and he was managed conservatively. Birdem Med J 2020; 10(1): 76-77

Various clinical manifestations, complex pathogenesis and different virus serotypes in diverse area make us difficult to predict course of disease, even the child admitted in early. Prognostic factors are very important to predict cases progressing to become DSS. Dengue shock syndrome (DSS) occurs in 15.53% of Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) patients with 7.81% mortality rate. Aim: To explore the prognostic factors of shock in hospitalized DHF children regarding the new 2011 WHO dengue virus infection classification guideline. This was a retrospective study using medical records of children age below 18 years old with WHO fulfilled grade 1 and 2 DHF diagnosis from January 2013–December 2016 in Child Health Department of Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta. Independent variables were sex, age, nutritional status, secondary dengue infection, leucopenia, abdominal tenderness, gastrointestinal bleeding, hepatomegaly and plasma leakage. Shock was dependent variable. Multivariate analysis was done by using logistic regresion analysis. There were 98 DHF subjects, 5 subjects became DSS during hospitalization. DSS subject characteristics were age of >5 years old, female, malnutrition, abdominal tenderness, hemoconcentration ≥20%, secondary dengue infection, leucocyte ≥5.000 mm3 and thrombocyte <50.000 mm3. Multivaryate analysis showed malnutrition and hepatomegaly were prognosis factors of DSS. Malnutrition and hepatomegaly were prognotic factors of dengue shock syndrome. Clinicians should be more aware with these factors when managed hospitalized DHF patients.

Many studies of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) have been done but only a few revealed the respiratory status. Respiratory problems arise. because of plasma leakage through the 'damaged capillaries, causing lung edema and in turn result in hypoxemia. This later on will be compensated by a hyperventilation state. During a 6-month-period (May to September 1988), two aspects were studied in 85 patients hospitalized with DHF. First, the ventilatory pattern and second, the result of giving oxygen support in improving the respiratory disturbance, in this case alveolar hyperventilation. The incidence of alveolar hyperventilation in DHF grade II (DHF II) and Dengue Shock Syndrome (DSS) differed significantly. Hypoxemia occurred in DHF II and DSS with no significant differences. The difference of the incidence of metabolic acidosis in DHF II and DSS were significant. In DHF II patients having had hyperventilation state, oxygen therapy decreased respiration rate significantly and increased the PaC02 though not significantly.

Bleeding complications in dengue may occur irrespective of the presence of plasma leakage. We compared plasma levels of modulators of the endothelial barrier among three dengue groups: bleedings without plasma leakage, dengue hemorrhagic fever, and non-complicated dengue. The aim was to evaluate whether the presence of subtle alterations in microvascular permeability could be detected in bleeding patients. Plasma levels of VEGF-A and its soluble receptors were not associated with the occurrence of bleeding in patients without plasma leakage. These results provide additional rationale for considering bleeding as a complication independent of endothelial barrier breakdown, as proposed by the 2009 WHO classification.

Abstract: In Indonesia, dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a serious health problem. Infection of dengue has occurred in Indonesia for the last two decades. It is a self limiting disease, however, its clinical manifestations has become worsened since several years ago. Epidemiologic pattern of dengue infection changes every year, and there is a peak of new cases every 10 years. Nowadays, adolescence and adult individuals belong to the high risk population of this infection. This epidemiologic changing of DHF is influenced by several environmental factors, inter alia: 1) increasing of human population; 2) uncontrolled urbanization; 3) no effective control of mosquitoes in endemic areas; and 4) modernized public transportation.Keywords: environmental sanitation, epidemiology, dengue hemorrhagic fever Abstrak: Di Indonesia, demam berdarah dengue (DBD) masih merupakan masalah kesehatan masyarakat yang penting. Infeksi dengue terjadi secara endemis di Indonesia selama dua abad terakhir. Penyakit ini bersifat self limiting namun dalam beberapa tahun terakhir memperlihatkan manifestasi klinis yang semakin berat sebagai DBD dan frekuensi kejadian luar biasanya semakin meningkat. Pola epidemiologi infeksi dengue mengalami perubahan dari tahun ke tahun, jumlah kasus memuncak setiap siklus 10 tahunan. Kelompok usia yang terserang dengue berubah menjadi kelompok remaja dan dewasa. Perubahan epidemiologi DBD ini turut dipengaruhi oleh faktor kesehatan lingkungan. Faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi peningkatan dan penyebaran kasus DBD sangat kompleks yaitu, antara lain: 1) pertumbuhan penduduk yang tinggi dan cepat; 2) urbanisasi yang tidak terencana dan tidak terkendali; 3) tidak adanya kontrol vektor nyamuk yang efektif di daerah endemis; serta 4) peningkatan sarana transportasi.Kata kunci: kesehatan lingkungan, epidemiologi, demam berdarah dengue

Background: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) or Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is currently one of the public health problems in Indonesia which tends to increase the number of patients and the wider spread. Dengue hemorrhagic fever is an infectious disease caused by dengue virus with clinical manifestations of fever, muscle pain / joint pain accompanied by rashes, thrombocytopenia and hemorrhagic thesis. The data obtained amounted to 81 people. Objective: The objective is to determine the relationship of knowledge, habits of hanging clothes and frequency of draining tubs with the prevention of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF). Method: This research was conducted at the Puskesmas Service conducted on May 14 until May 25, 2019. Data analysis used univariate and bivariate analyzes. This research method uses analytical survey method with cross sectional approach. The sample in this study amounted to 81 people using systematic random sampling techniques. Results: From the analysis it was found that there was a relationship of knowledge (ρ-value 0.001), habit of hanging clothes (ρ-value 0.001), and frequency of draining tub (p-value 0,000), with the prevention of DHF. Suggestion: in order to increase counseling about the dangers of dengue fever to the public. Keywords: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever, Behavior

Haemoptysis is a frequently occurring but sometimes life-threatening condition. Congenital cardiovascular abnormalities are rare causes of haemoptysis. We report a case of a 33-year-old man without any past medical history complaining of haemoptysis with no other associated clinical manifestations. A contrast-enhanced chest computed tomography scan revealed aortic coarctation with dilation of the internal mammary, intercostal and bronchial arteries. He underwent stent placement after balloon angioplasty with favourable outcomes.
