Ventricular trigeminy in a patient with serologically confirmed dengue haemorrhagic fever
Abstract
Background:Cardiac arrhythmias occur during the acute stage of Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever. Dengue myocarditis is the most likely cause of the arrhythmias.
Case presentation:We report a 55-year-old patient with Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever presenting with transient ventricular trigeminy which has not been reported before.
Conclusion:Among many other known cardiac arrhythmia seen in DHF, ventricular trigeminy is also a possibility. Clinicians should be aware of this cardiac rhythm abnormality that can occur in dengue patients.
Keywords:Dengue fever, Ventricular trigeminy, Dengue myocarditis
