Vaccine: MMR
Symptoms: Abnormal behaviour, Anorexia, Antisocial behaviour, Autism, Cognitive disorder
Clinical narrative: Information has been received from a foreign legal firm concerning an 13 month old male who on 9/2/94, was vaccinated with MMR II (lot 61066/1442W). It is alleged that following this vaccination the pt developed autism. Practically overnight, after the vaccination, there was a noticeable change in his skin and his color. Within three days of having the vaccination, on approximately 9/5/94, the pt had lost interest in the things around him and would wander aimlessly. He would sit in a dirty diaper and not indicate that it needed changing. He also stopped asking for drinks or saying "ta." Within a week of the vaccination the pt became unwell and developed a temperature. Within two weeks of the vaccination, approximately 9/16/94, the pt had a cold for a few days and developed a rash. He also lost his appetite. Per the pt's general practitioner, he developed a "non-specified viral rash" on 9/15/94. Three weeks post vaccination, approximately 9/23/94, the pt was hospitalized with a respiratory infection and bilateral inflamed eardrums. The physician who cared for the pt while hospitalized noted that his speech consisted of babbling with no distinct words with meaning. By teh age of eighteen months the pt was not even saying any monosyllables and had lost the speech he previously gained. Around that time he also started screaming constantly. He began having tantrums and would not tolerate being picked up. He began to put inappropriate things in his ears and would bash his head against walls. He would not respond to noise and he did not have a sense of danger. This led him to climb on everything and a times he would just jump out into the road. He became very unsociable and would sit on the windowsill for hours and would not interact with others. He began to become obsessional about his routine and would line things up including his toys. In May of 1995, the pt was referred to the senior clinical medical officer at a pediatric audiology service. There it was noted that the pt had poor eye contact and that he became angry if his activities were restricted. It was also noted that he had no speech apart from saying "gi gi." The impression was that his hearing was within the normal range, but there was concern over the pt's lack of speech, social skills and poor eye contact. In June of 1995, a consultant pediatrician concluded that the pt at 23 months old had obvious signs of significant delay in both his expressive language skills and his comprehension, which was associate with his poor social skills and communication skills. In November of 1995 the same pediatrician assessed the pt and diagnosed him as being autistic. Upon internal review, the pt's autism was considered to be an other important medical event.

Clinical narrative: Information has been received from a registered nurse concerning an 18 year old white female with an allergy to sulfa and otherwise "apparently well" who on 5/20/02 was vaccinated in the left deltoid IM with a first dose of hepatitis A virus vaccine inactivated (lot 0162-invalid lot). Concomitant vaccination and therapy on 5/20/02 included a first dose of meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine (MENOMUNE) (lot UB106AA) in the left deltoid IM and a dose of tuberculin purified protein derivative (TUBERSOL) in the left forearm. Although the patient had been treated with amoxicillin trihydrate (+) clavulanate potassium (AUGMENTIN) for sinusitis from 5/7/02 until 5/17/02, there was no illness at the time of vaccination. It was reported that the patient inadvertently received 1ml of the hepatitis A virus vaccine inactivated instead of 0.5ml. This does not comply with the dosage recommendations. Subsequently, on 5/28/02 (also reported as 24 to 48 hours post vaccination), the patient experienced lower abdominal cramps and diarrhea for 3-4 days which then subsided. On 5/31/02 the patient presented to the physician's office with bloody, mucousy diarrhea stools and abdominal pain. She had an intermittant low grade fever, no vomiting, appetite within normal limits, and not weight loss. On 6/1/02 the patient presented to the ER and was hospitalized overnight. Stool cultures were sent and the abdominal computed axial tomography was negative. On 6/4/02 the patient was diagnosed with Clostridium difficile and her therapy included metronidazole (FLAGYL), which made her quite ill, vomiting for 10 days during therapy. On 6/26/02, studies demonstrated Clostridium difficile toxin A & B and the patient received vancomycin therapy for 10 days. On 7/22/02 neither toxin was detected. On 8/26/02, it was reported that despite the negative stool culture result, the patient continues to have increased stools of 5-6 per day. She is afebrile and has lost 15 pounds but now regained 5 pounds. She is now on acidophilus and being followed by a gastroenterologist. On 9/27/02, the patient was reported as recovered by "not totally recovered yet". Follow up information received on 10/14/02 reported that the patient "still sees a gastroenterologist", with treatment of metronidazole (Flagyl)and vancomycin, for Clostridium difficile. The patient reportedly had 3-4 diarrheal stool daily when off antibiotics. a colonscopy reportedly "may be scheduled if necessary." It was reported that the patient has not recovered. Additional information has been requested.
