  3. Chief Complaint “ Blurry vision in both eyes since 1 day”

  4. History of Present Illness • A 22-year-old inmate male was hospitalized for dengue fever. On the third day of admission (7 days after fever onset), he complained of acute onset of painless decrease of vision in both eyes and was referred for ophthalmic evaluation. He denied associated photopsias, floaters, photophobia or diplopia.

  5. History • Past Ocular Hx : Myopia • Systemic med : Acetaminophen IV drip • Drug Allergy : NKDA • Family Hx : Non-contributory • Social Hx : (+) Smoking (-) Alcohol x 3 yrs (-) Drugs

  18. Dengue Fever • Most prevalent form of flavivirus infection in humans • 4 Serotypes • DEN-1, DEN-2, DEN-3, or DEN-4 • Transmitted generally by Aedesaegyptimosquito • Usually self-limiting illness with minimal systemic sequelae.

  19. Dengue Fever • Endemic in the tropics and warm temperate regions in the world • Highest incidence • South-East Asia • Western Pacific • Latin and Central America • 500,000 cases/year require hospitalization • Most prevalent during rainy seasons when standing water provides an ideal breeding ground for mosquitoes

  20. World Distribution of Dengue (2005) PR

  21. Dengue in Latin America and the Caribbean

  22. Dengue Fever in PR (2007) • More than 3,200 suspected dengue cases were reported in Puerto Rico from January to August 2007. • Most since the dengue fever epidemic of 1994.

  23. Dengue in USA • Cases of dengue fever are confirmed every year in travelers returning to USA after visits to tropical and subtropical areas. (1) • Studies of military and relief workers placed the estimated risk for travelers returning from dengue-endemic areas near one illness per 1000 travelers. (2) • CDC. Travel-associated dengue - US, 2005. MMWR Morbid Mortal Wkly Rep. 2006;55:22:700-2. • O’Leary DR, et al. Assessment of Dengue risk in relief workers in PR after Hurricane Georges. Am J Trop Med Hyg. 2002;66:35-39

  24. USA – Aedesalbopictus

  25. Dengue Fever Symptoms • Abrupt onset of fever after 2-7 day incubation period, with temp reaching 41◦ C • Several malaise, headaches, and retroburbal and lumbo-sacral pain

  26. Dengue Fever Symptoms • Patients also experience: • Sore throat, rhinitis, cough • Nausea • Anorexia • Altered taste sensation • Transient macular rash on day 1 to day 2 of illness • Secondary rash on days 3-6 of illness that involves the trunk, limbs, and face.

  27. Dengue Fever

  28. Laboratories • Compatible with Dengue: • ↓ Platelets • ↑ Hematocrit • ↓ WBC • CONFIRMATION TESTS • Dengue IgM + IgGSerologies • PCR

  29. Tourniquet Test • Measure blood pressure • Inflate the cuff for 5 minutes to a pressure exactly half way between systolic and diastolic pressures. • If there are ≥ 10 petechiaes in 1 square inch area, then the test is positive.

  30. Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever • More severe form of the disease • Associated with: • Multisystem hemorrhagic manifestations • Skin hemes, epistaxis, gingival bleed, hemoptysis, GI bleeding, hematuria, menorrhagia • Thrombocytopenia (<100,000) • Hemoconcentration (>20% above baseline) • Increased vascular permeability • Plasma leakage

  31. El Yunque National Forest

  32. Ophthalmic Complications • Rarely associated with ocular manifestations, but have been reported in the literature as isolated case reports since the 1970s • Onset of visual symptoms closely correlated with the nadir of thrombocytopenia.

  33. Ophthalmic Complications • Symptoms • Blurring of vision • Central scotoma • Micropsia/Metamorphopsia • Visual field defect • Floaters • Near vision disturbance • Redness

  34. Signs Macular hemorrhage Macular edema Retinal vasculitis Intermediate uveitis Subconjunctival hemorrhage Inflammatory optic neuropathy Ophthalmic Complications

  35. Pathophysiology… • The pathophysiologic mechanisms responsible for dengue effects are not completely understood. • Several authors report an interval between the systemic manifestations of dengue fever and the onset of visual symptoms. • This delay is consistent with the hypothesis that the ocular manifestations could be an immune-mediated process rather than a direct viral infection.
