Dengue is the disease transmitted by arthropods of major importance in public health; however its presence in the neonatal stage is poorly studied, with few cases described worldwide. We present the case report of a neonate who started illness at 12 days of age, characterized by fever and irritability. He was hospitalized for suspicion of neonatal sepsis; later he presented thrombocytopenia and due the antecedent of his mother with diagnosis of dengue after childbirth, dengue tests were obtained in the neonate, resulting positive, then support treatment and fluid treatment is performed, with subsequent recovery. Dengue in the neonatal stage should always be suspected in areas where the disease is endemic and management guides should be proposed.
登革热是由节肢动物传播的对公共卫生至关重要的疾病;然而,其在新生儿期的情况研究较少,全球报道的病例也很少。我们报告一例新生儿病例,该患儿12日龄起病,表现为发热和易激惹。因怀疑新生儿败血症而住院;随后出现血小板减少,鉴于其母亲产后诊断为登革热,遂对该新生儿进行登革热检测,结果呈阳性,随后给予支持治疗和液体治疗,患儿随后康复。在登革热流行地区,应始终怀疑新生儿期感染登革热,并应提出管理指南。
