ABSTRACT

During recent epidemic of dengue fever in Peshawar, there has been a significant increase in dengue-associated admission in hospitals. We performed a postmortem examination of dengue-related death in our hospital. He was a young man, who was given supportive care at our tertiary care hospital, despite that he died on seventh day of admission. The autopsy findings in this case included multiple organ involvement including heart, lungs, kidneys and brain. There was histopathological finding of microabscesses in heart, lungs, brain and kidneys, which have not been reported in the literature yet. In patients with severe dengue, deaths do occur despite current supportive management. Knowing the pathological processes involved in severe disease, it can help identify early predictors of disease severity and help applying adequate clinical interventions
