Popis: Renal failure is a potential complication that can occur in severe dengue infections. It typically affects 2-5% of cases and is associated with a high mortality rate. This case report presents a middle-aged female with dengue shock syndrome and co-existing urosepsis resulting in acute renal injury requiring intensive care management. The case report highlights dengue fever, in the manifestation of dengue shock syndrome, as an exacerbating factor for acute kidney injury in a patient at risk of kidney injury with a coexisting bacterial infection.
