https://doi.org/10.25789/YMJ.2023.83.32
Abstract
In this article, on the example of clinical observation, the course of imported dengue fever from the Kingdom of Thailand is presented. The disease proceeded with symptoms of lymphadenopathy, rash, hyperemia of the pharynx with symptoms of enanthema and mild intoxication syndrome. It is necessary to differentiate dengue fever from other infectious pathologies that occur with exanthema syndrome, enanthema, and enlarged lymph nodes. An epidemiological history also plays a significant role in the diagnostic search; if tourists who have returned from endemic countries have a fever, it is necessary to conduct an examination for Dengue fever.
