Local Paralysis in Children after Injections.

چکیده
This paper has been written to draw attention to the association between intramuscular injections and flaccid paralysis of one limb. Seventeen affected children have been examined and followed up personally. The records of a further 60 to 70 cases have been available and have been used to provide information not clearly brought out in the shorter series. Cases in which injection preceded paralysis by more than 28 days have been excluded. The aetiology of the paralysis and the relationship it bears to the injection are discussed.
