Dengue viral infection is a cause of considerable morbidity and mortality and may be associated with a variety of mucocutaneous manifestations that may provide important early clues to the diagnosis of this condition.

The differential diagnoses include a large number of bacterial and viral exanthems as well as drug rash. |
