Voiding and Sexual Dysfunction in a Young Patient After Dengue Fever

Abstract

Dengue fever is the most prevalent viral disease caused by arthropods in the world. Post-dengue neurological complications have been reported in less than 1% of cases. Urinary and sexual dysfunctions after complications of dengue infection are rare. We report a case of a young patient who presented with transverse myelitis after dengue infection and evolved with voiding and sexual dysfunction. Transverse myelitis after dengue is a rare complication, especially in young patients with no other risk factors who evolve with voiding and sexual dysfunction.
