A Case Report and Literature Analysis of Haemorrhagic Fever Characterized by Eyelid Swelling

Abstract

Objective the morbidity and mortality of haemorrhagic fever in children is low [1], with atypical clinical manifestations, high out-of-phase rate and easy misdiagnosis at the early stage of disease. There are few reports on HFRS in children in China. This paper describes a case of Haemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome (HFRS) in children with edema of the first eyelid as the primary symptom to enhance clinicians’ understanding of this disease and reduce misdiagnosis.
