Three cases were mother to child transmission, the age at onset was 1 to 7 days after birth, and their mothers suffered with prenatal fever and were diagnozed of dengue fever during perinatal period. One case was community acquired, the age at onset was day 21 after birth and the neonate was bit by mosquito the day before. All four neonates had fever, two cases had rash, and one case had hemorrhagic spot. None of them had jaundice or cough.

Three cases had declined ifbrinogen ( 1 . 36-2 . 53 g/L). Two cases had increased CK-MB ( 29-86 U/L). Two cases had increased CRP ( 3 . 00-46 . 05 mg/L).
