Abstract

Dengue hemorrhagic fever is a common tropical disease in Indonesia. Nowadays, the incidence has been increasing among adults and more cases of dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever in pregnancy are being reported. We managed one case of dengue hemorrhagic fever during pregnancy which developed during antepartum periods. We diagnosed dengue hemorrhagic fever during pregnancy with clinical pictures of fever, hem concentration, thrombocytopenia and serological test. This case was treated conservatively. The patient has recovery and has already discharged. The patient came again after 3 days with chief complaint water broke history previous C section, so we decided to perform emergency C Section. Patient and the baby were in good condition before discharged. Where dengue is endemic, dengue infection should be highly suspected in cases of febrile pregnant women. A knowledge of its diagnosis and management plays a vital role for an obstetrician, particularly regarding to the mode of delivery. Supportive care with analgesics, bed rest, adequate fluid replacement and maintenance of electrolyte balance forms the main stay of treatment. The management of most cases was conservative.
