- Abstract
Neurological manifestation as the presenting feature of dengue infection is rare. This is a brief description of five children 5 months to 11 years with presenting features as seizures or altered sensorium. Bleeding manifestations were seen in two. Cerebrospinal fluid examination was normal in all. All were diagnosed as per WHO definition of dengue hemorrhagic fever and managed as per standard protocol. Serology (IgM dengue) or nonstructural protein 1 antigen was positive in all.
