Abstract

Transverse myelitis (TM) has rarely been reported in association with tetanustoxoid-containing vaccines. Here, we report a 46-year-old man presentedwith progressive paresthesias and weakness in his arms and legs followingan intramuscular injection of adult-type diphtheria and tetanus toxoids (Td).This is the sixth reported case of TM following Td vaccination. Physiciansmust be aware of this rare but serious side effect when prescribing Td vaccineand postvaccinial TM must be kept in mind when making a differentialdiagnosis of TM.

Özet

Transvers myelit (TM) tetanoz toksoidi içeren aşılardan sonra gelişen çok nadir bir komplikasyon olarak bildirilmiştir. Bu olgu sunumunda, erişkin tipDifteri Tetanoz Toksoid aşısı (Td) olduktan sonra kollarında ve bacaklarındaprogresif parestezi ve kas güçsüzlüğü gelişen kırk altı yaşında bir erkek hasta sunulmaktadır. Bu olgu literatürde Td aşısından sonra TM gelişen altıncı olgudur. Hekimler tetanoz aşısı reçete ederken bu nadir fakat ciddiyan etki konusunda uyanık olmalı; TM’in ayırıcı tanısı yapılırken aşıya bağlı gelişen TM akılda tutulmalıdır.
