Abstract | A total of 4 243 049 dengue cases have been reported in Brazil between 1981 and 2006, including
5 817 cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome (DHF/DSS) and a
total of 338 fatal cases. Although all Brazilian regions have been affected, the Northeast and
Southeast regions have registered the highest number of notifications. DENV-1 and DENV-4
were isolated for the first time in the Amazon region of Brazil in 1981 and 1982. The disease
became a nationwide public health problem following outbreaks of DENV-1 and DENV-2 in
the state of Rio de Janeiro in 1986 and 1990, respectively. The introduction of DENV-3 in
2000, also in the state of Rio de Janeiro, led to a severe epidemic with 288 245 reported dengue
cases, including 91 deaths. Virus strains that were typed during the 2002 epidemic show that
DENV-3 has displaced other dengue virus serotypes and entered new areas, a finding that
warrants closer evaluation.
Unusual clinical symptoms, including central nervous system involvement, have been observed
in dengue patients in at least three regions of the country. | pt_BR |
