Abstract

and importance: Although dengue fever classically presents with fever, headache, retro-orbital pain, myalgia, arthralgia, and vomiting, it can have unusual manifestations like acalculous cholecystitis. The study highlights the importance of atypical presentations of dengue fever in suspecting dengue earlier, especially during outbreaks.
