At an unspecified time after vaccination with CERVARIX, the subject experienced streptococcal septicemia. The subject died on 30 November 2008 from streptococcal septicemia. It was unknown whether an autopsy was performed. MHRA Verbatim Text: Patient died 3 weeks following 2nd HPV Vaccination. Reported to have died due to Streptococcal A Septicemia. Still awaiting coroners verdict. Follow-up information received on 14 July 2010 from the MHRA: The patient had a cough for one week and then developed fever for three days. Patient was admitted to hospital three weeks after CERVARIX vaccination when the cough got worse and they developed difficulty breathing. On admission the respiratory rate was 60 per minute and they were distressed. They became so distressed they were unable to speak. The patient was transferred to the high dependency unit. On 28 November 2008 the patient then became tachycardic and a chest infection was diagnosed and the patient was taken to the theatre and intubated and ventilated. The patient crashed an hour later and had arrests characterized by very severe hypotension. The patient became asystolic. Despite all efforts the decision that further attempts were futile was made and the patient died on 28 November 2008. The cause of death was streptococcal septicemia. The coroner states that there is no doubt death was due to a group A streptococcal septicaemia. There was active inflammation of the upper respiratory tracts, the mediastinum, and focally the lungs. Group A streptococcus was cultured from multiple sites both at post-mortem and during the short terminal illness. It was noted that a respiratory syncytial virus was identified from the nose swab. According to the coroner it was probable that an upper respiratory tract infection was the portal of the devastating bacterial infection that caused death and it was possible that the respiratory syncytial virus was significant here. Post mortem results: A post mortem was carried out and there was found to be a considerable degree of generalized subcutaneous oedema. Both pleural cavities contained approximately 150mls of turbid yellow fluid. The lungs were found to have a necrotizing pleuritis with some extension of acute inflammation into the pulmonary parenchyma that is immediately adjacent to the pleural surface, though extensive pneumonia is not identified. Some inflammation and oedema extends into the pulmonary interstitium in the areas close to the pleural and mediastinal surface of the lungs. Some areas of bronchopneumonia are identified. The pericardial cavity contains approximately 50ml of clear liquid and the peritoneal cavity contains approximately 250-300ml of clear yellow fluid. The trachea shows evidence of an acute tracheitis with mediastinitis of the upper mediastinum. The larynx shows evidence of an upper respiratory tract infection. The thymus shows marked oedema, and the presence of scattered inflammatory cells. | ||||||||||||||||||||
