This case report provides the first evidence of Enterovirus A119 detection in a human with a clinical condition (Acute Flaccid Paralysis).
EV-A119 detection in acute flaccid paralysis is hypothesis-generating; larger studies needed before any clinical implications.
The oldest EV-A119 record was in 2008 in a chimpanzee in Cameroon and subsequently in more non-human primates and healthy children. Here we report for the first time the detection of EV-A119 in a child with Acute Flaccid Paralysis, thus suggesting possible association with a clinical condition in humans.
