Abstract
Vaccine-acquired poliomyelitis developed in a nonimmunized 10-month-old boy. At age 4 years, ataxia-telangiectasia was recognized. We conclude that the occurrence of vaccine-related poliomyelitis warrants a detailed assessment of immunity, and that, in patients with ataxia-telangiectasia, the use of live vaccines may be hazardous, even in those with apparently normal immunity.Entities:
