Dengue and scrub typhus coinfection in pregnancy: A rare case with multiorgan dysfunction.
Tropical infections continue to cause significant morbidity and mortality in India. While mixed tropical infections are relatively common in the general population, they are rare during pregnancy. We report a 24-year-old pregnant woman with a history of previous lower segment caesarean section and preeclampsia, who developed dengue and scrub typhus infection near-term. The illness was complicated by multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, yet with timely multidisciplinary management, both maternal and neonatal outcomes were favourable. Literature on such mixed tropical infections in pregnancy remains scarce.
