Enteroviral meningitis and concurrent peripheral motor axonal polyneuropathy

Daniel E Dulek et al. Pediatr Infect Dis J. 2012 Feb.

Abstract

Enteroviral infections can cause acute flaccid paralysis resulting from anterior myelitis, but the occurrence of axonal polyneuropathy is not well described. We report an 8-year-old boy who presented with symmetric, ascending flaccid paralysis and was diagnosed with concurrent echovirus type 9 viral meningitis.
