Diagnosis and Outcome of a Fulminant Case of Dengue Myocarditis

Key Result

Dengue shock syndrome with myocarditis carries a good prognosis for recovery, even in fulminant cases requiring mechanical circulatory support.

Key Points

This research aims to evaluate the diagnosis and outcomes of fulminant dengue myocarditis cases.
Descriptive case analysis of dengue myocarditis symptoms
