Abstract

Dengue fever, an arboviral infection transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, remains a significant public health challenge in urban Bangladesh, especially in densely populated areas like Dhaka. This retrospective study investigates atypical clinical manifestations and platelet count dynamics among dengue patients, analyzing the association between thrombocytopenia and disease severity. Twenty patients treated in Dhaka were analyzed for clinical and hematological markers, with a specific focus on atypical presentations and platelet-hematocrit correlations. The findings highlight that while thrombocytopenia is a well-established indicator of dengue severity, several patients with critically low platelet counts did not exhibit typical warning signs, necessitating a more nuanced clinical approach.
