Parsonage-Turner syndrome (PTS) is a non-traumatic disorder of the shoulder girdle, marked by sudden-onset neuropathic pain, spontaneous improvement, and progression to paralysis, muscle weakness, and atrophy. Various etiological factors have been linked to PTS. This clinical case report documents the development of PTS following dengue virus exposure. Laboratory tests, electromyography, and imaging studies ruled out other potential diseases. This report highlights dengue infection as a potential infectious trigger for PTS and discusses its clinical presentation, treatment, and prognosis through a narrative review of the case presented.
