متن کاملEnterovirus D68–Associated Acute Flaccid Myelitis in Immunocompromised Woman, Italy
In Italy in 2016, acute flaccid myelitis developed in a woman who had received a hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Enterovirus D68 viral genome was detected in respiratory and cerebrospinal fluid samples, and the viral protein 1 sequence clustered with lineage B3. Immunocompromised adults may be at risk for enterovirus D68-associated neurologic complications.
متن کاملAcute flaccid paralysis following enterovirus D68 associated pneumonia, France, 2014.
Human enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is known to be associated with mild to severe respiratory infections.

This case study is the first report of AFP following EV-D68...
