Abstract
Infection from the dengue virus can manifest with a variety of clinical presentations. Cardiac involvement from dengue fever is a rarely reported phenomenon with significant morbidity and mortality. We illustrate the case of a 47-year-old male admitted to the hospital with fevers. The hospital course was complicated with cardiac arrest. Clinicians need to be weary of this rare occurrence particularly in areas with a known prevalence of dengue for prompt recognition and improved patient outcomes.
