Overview

Case report reveals cerebral vasculitis and simultaneous stroke in a dengue and malaria patient, indicating diagnostic challenges.

Key Points

  • Simultaneous occurrence of subarachnoid haemorrhage and ischemic stroke signifies severe complications of co-infection.
  • Positive Dengue IgM serology and malaria blood smear confirmed the dual infection in a 29-year-old female.
  • Neuroimaging techniques revealed both cerebral vasculitis and ischemic stroke within a week of hospital admission.
  • Challenges in diagnosis emerge from overlapping symptoms of hemorrhagic and ischemic events in these infections.
