    A 37-year-old woman presented with a short history of fever and bilateral lower limb
    weakness. She also had impaired sensory function up to T4 spine level and lax anal tone.
    Laboratory investigations confirmed dengue infection with mild thrombocytopenia. MRI of the
    spine showed a spinal subarachnoid haemorrhage from the level of T4 till T9. Despite
    medical and surgical interventions, her lower limb weakness persists. A high index of
    suspicion is needed to recognise dengue-related neurological complications. This diagnosis
    should be considered in any patients from dengue endemic areas presenting with acute
    febrile illness with atypical neurological manifestations.
