Sex: M
Vaccine: DTAPHEPBIP
Symptoms: Abasia, Aphasia, Asthma, Encephalopathy, Eye disorder
Clinical narrative: This case was reported by a consumer (the subject's mother) and described the occurrence of high levels of mercury in an infant male subject (2 to 3 months of age) who was vaccinated with PEDIARIX, GlaxoSmithKline.  A physician or other health care professional has not verified this report.  On an unspecified date (thought to be 12 November 2004) the subject received unspecified dose (possibly the 1st dose) of PEDIARIX at 0.5 ml.  The lot number for this vaccine was thought to be 2191BA9 or 21918A9 (the lot number was difficult to read).  The mother stated that her son experienced an asthma attack three days after his "vaccinations" and he began to change.  It was reported that the subject developed encephalopathy.  He is now unable to talk, or walk and he was not able to look his mother in the eye.  The subjects urine was tested and found to contain high levels of mercury.  A urine porphorin test performed on 06 April 2008 revealed the level of heavy metals (metal toxicity) in the subjects body to be 216 (normal 0 - 153).  The events were considered by GSK to be medically significant.  The subject was seen in the emergency room.  It was reported that the subject received an unspecified GSK vaccine on 14 January 2005 with lot number 21919A9, another on 11 March 2005 with lot number AC21AD10CA and then another on 28 November 2005 with lot number AC14A006BA (lot numbers could be incorrect as they again were hard to read).  The reporter stated that it was the PEDIARIX vaccine that started her son's "injury."  At the time of reporting the outcome of the events was described as worse with the exception of encephalopathy, lack of eye contact and the asthma attack that were unspecified.  The reporter expressed concern over the amount of thimerosal in the PEDIARIX vaccine.

Symptoms: Accidental overdose
Clinical narrative: This case was reported by a healthcare professional and described the occurrence of accidental asymptomatic overdose in a 5-year-old female subject who was vaccinated with PEDIARIX (GlaxoSmithKline), ENGERIX B, poliomyelitis vaccine and unspecified (Polio vaccine). Concurrent vaccination included MMR vaccine (Merck) given on 12 September 2008. There were no concurrent medications. On 12 September 2008 the subject received unspecified dose of PEDIARIX at 0.5 ml in the left arm, 2nd dose of ENGERIX B and 2nd dose of Polio vaccine. This was considered to be an accidental asymptomatic overdose due to the excess hepatitis B and polio vaccine. No adverse events were reported. The healthcare professional considered the event was clinically significant (or requiring intervention) as she was having to contact GSK for safety considerations.

Clinical narrative: Information has been received from a physician concerning an 8 year old female with no pertinent medical history and no allergies who in approximately May 2008, was vaccinated with the second dose of VARIVAX. There was no concomitant medication. The patient presented to the office within a month of receiving VARIVAX on 13-JUN-2008 with lethargy, twitching and weakness of the right arm. The patient had onset of focal seizure. There was never any fever. She was admitted to a local hospital ICU on that date. CSF with a 20 count WBC, negative cultures, negative HSV DNA, pathology was reactive changes. Culture and serology were negative. MRI of the brain revealed a mass lesion of the left parietal lobe and a brain biopsy revealed "necrotizing chronic cerebritis consistent with viral infection". The patient responded well to steroid treatment and was discharged. The patient then developed an upper respiratory infection mid July 2008, which was treated with ZITHROMAX and "cold medicine". The symptoms of lethargy, tingling and weakness of the right arm returned and the patient was re-admitted to the hospital. An MRI of the brain revealed "similar changes of the left parietal lobe" and a diagnosis of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis was made. The patient responded well initially to pulse steroids but the symptoms recurred as the steroids were tapered. The patient was re-admitted to the hospital in late-August 2008. The original brain biopsy, dated 13-JUN-2008 was re-evaluated and a diagnosis of T-cell Lymphoma was made. The biopsy was also sent for evaluation and the diagnosis was felt to be "viral infection" as opposed to lymphoma. A second brain biopsy was scheduled on 18-SEP-2008, results showed lymphoma. Immune testing performed after onset of symptoms included HIV, immunoglobulins, T cells with normal results. Health Care Physician (HCP) did not feel this was due to VARIVAX. The patient's events persisted. The physician considered the patient's events were considered to be immediately life-threatening, disabling and other important medical event. Additional information has been requested.  1/26/2010 Follow-up:My daughter had 17 seizures after receiving these shots. She was then diagnosed with CNS Lymphoma and went through Chemothertmast and stem cell transplant.
