Abstract
The prevalence of dengue fever in South Asian countries has been increasing for the last few years including Sri Lanka. Dengue encephalitis is an unusual and severe manifestation of dengue fever, with only a few cases being reported worldwide. This uncommon manifestation of dengue fever gives rise to many diagnostic dilemmas, thus challenging the treating physicians. Here, we report a case of dengue fever complicated with encephalitis with the typical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features. This report highlights the importance of considering dengue fever in patients presenting with fever and neurological manifestations.
