Abstract
Two vertical dengue infection cases are presented, and 15 others are reviewed. Twelve mothers had fever 0-9 (median, 2) days antepartum. The fevers of 17 neonates occurred at 1-11 (median, 4) days of life and lasted for 1-5 (median, 3) days. Neonatal thrombocytopenia was detected at 1-11 (median, 6) days of life and lasted for 3-18 (median, 6) days; the lowest platelet counts were 5-75 x 10(3) (median, 19 x 10 (3))/mm3. One neonate died.Keywords
