Symptoms: Abortion spontaneous, Unintended pregnancy, Vaginal haemorrhage
Clinical narrative: On 01 Dec 2006, 57 days after receiving FluMist therapy, a 16-year old female patient with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma experienced a spontaneous abortion. The patient was a participant in the study and received study vaccine as either FluMist or placebo vaccine on 05 Oct 2006. The patient was administered FluMist as annual flu vaccine 10 Nov 2006 by her primary oncology attending physician. On 10 Nov 2006, the results of a routine urine pregnancy test were weakly positive. A repeated pregnancy test in the blood conducted on 13 Nov 2006 showed a positive result. The patient was estimated to be in the first trimester and the last menstrual period was not known. The patient's methotrexate therapy was stopped on 10 Nov 2006 and 6-mercaptopurine therapy was stopped on 13 Nov 2006, due to the pregnancy. On 01 Dec 2006, the patient experienced vaginal bleeding lasting for two to three days. A urine pregnancy test was negative on 01 Dec 2006. On 09 Dec 2006, the patient was seen in a local clinic where an ultrasound indicated that the patient had experienced a spontaneous abortion around 01 Dec 2006. The chemotherapy treatment with methotrexate and 6-mercaptopurine was resumed on 11 Dec 2006. The reporter assessed the event of spontaneous abortion as not related to FluMist therapy, but rather to the patient's methotrexate and 6-mercaptopurine therapy. (OMIC)
