Abstract
ABSTRACT: Dengue is the most common and widespread arthropod-borne arboviral infection. Symptoms include fever, headache, muscle, and joint pains, and a characteristic skin rash. Although viral myositis is common, myositis caused by the dengue virus is not commonly reported. The case of serologically confirmed dengue fever complicated by pyomyositis associated with a tenfold increase in serum creatine phosphokinase is presented. Keywords: Dengue, Creatinine phosphokinase, Myositis
