- Infekční klinika FN Na Bulovce, Praha
The palsy involvements are rare but severe complications of diseases in the childhood. They are consequence to direct activity of bacteria and some microbes or owing to the imunopathological processes. Their frequency decreased relevantly by high vaccination in this country even though the vaccination may be the stimulation to advancement of palsy failures too. The character of failure and its location depend on the ethiological agens. The facial palsy is the most frequently from common cold or early neuroborreliosis. Polyradiculoneuritis has the most severe course in the childhood too. Despite the low number of these complications, it is important the consequent surveillance of the palsy involvement mainly to the capture of enteroviruses.
