Atypical presentations may indicate vaccine-associated contact poliomyelitis; hypothesis-generating for inactivated vaccine recommendations in contacts.
What are the clinical features of vaccine-associated contact paralytic poliomyelitis?
Vaccine-associated contact paralytic poliomyelitis can present with atypical neurological features compared to wild strain poliomyelitis, suggesting non-immunized contacts should receive inactivated polio-vaccine.
Arlazoroff et al. (1987) studied this question.
