Abstract
Background and Aims: Dengue infection is a major health burden, which can result in mild self-limited febrile illness to highly fatal hemorrhagic disease. There is paucity of literature describing the manifestations of dengue in patients with underlying liver disease. We studied and compared the manifestations of this tropical infection in patients with and without liver disease.Keywords
