Abstract

Many pediatric and adult cases of acute transverse myelitis secondary to COVID-19 infection have been reported in the literature so far, but vaccine-related acute transverse myelitis is very rare. In fact, there have been no reported cases in children until now. Vaccination in children is vital both in the prevention of disease and continuing their social life and education. Hence, we believe that it is essential to follow up and report all of the complications that may occur after vaccination.
