Abstract
Dengue fever is an important arboviral disease with a spectrum ranging from asymptomatic disease to fatal haemorrhagic fever and shock syndrome. Bleeding is a well known complication that may range from skin petechea to fatal haemorrhages. We report a rare case of spontaneous scrotal haematoma in a 14 year old boy with dengue haemorrhagic fever.
