A Dengue virus infection was imported from Thailand to The Netherlands in a Caucasian male. This case highlights Dengue virus transmission risks in non-endemic regions.

Area of Science:

Tropical medicine
Infectious diseases
Virology

Background:

Dengue virus (DENV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus responsible for significant global morbidity and mortality.
Endemic in tropical and subtropical regions, DENV infections are increasingly reported in non-endemic areas due to travel and climate change.

Observation:

A case of imported Dengue virus infection is presented in a Caucasian male traveler returning to The Netherlands from Thailand.
The patient's clinical presentation and epidemiological link to a Dengue-endemic area were documented.

Findings:

The clinical characteristics of Dengue virus infection in this patient were detailed.
Potential pathogenetic mechanisms underlying Dengue virus pathogenesis were discussed in the context of this case.

Related Experiment Videos

Implications:

This case underscores the importance of considering Dengue virus in febrile travelers returning from endemic regions, even in non-endemic countries.
Enhanced surveillance and diagnostic capabilities are crucial for managing imported infectious diseases and preventing local transmission.
