Background:Liver dysfunction in dengue varies from mild injury with elevation of transaminases to severe hepatocyte injury. Despite hepatocytes are not a major target, hepatic dysfunction is the recurrent feature. Predictive hepatic serum markers represent a solution for the dynamic care of serious dengue and predicting disease prognosis. In the present study we pursued to mold the mode of hepatic involvement in children with dengue and its association with seriousness of disease.
