Vaccination against the novel epidemic influenza virus A/H1N1 that appeared in 2009 is associated with a number of neurological complications, including transverse myelitis [1]. The guidelines of the Italian Ministry of Health (23 July 2009) suggest that patients with immunodeficiency syndromes, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive individuals, also be vaccinated against this virus. Here we report a case of Miller–Fisher syndrome (MFS) in a patient with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) following vaccination against seasonal and pandemic influenza.

Abstract
Vaccination against the novel epidemic influenza virus A/H1N1 that appeared in 2009 is associated with a number of neurological complications, including transverse myelitis [1]. The guidelines of the Italian Ministry of Health (23 July 2009) suggest that patients with immunodeficiency syndromes, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive individuals, also be vaccinated against this virus. Here we report a case of Miller–Fisher syndrome (MFS) in a patient with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) following vaccination against seasonal and pandemic influenza.
