Myelopathy After Duck Embryo Vaccine
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1973 ABSTRACT To the Editor.— As a neurologist, I read the article, "Myelopathy After Duck Embryo Rabies Vaccine" by Mozar et al (224:1605-1607, 1973) with concern. I could find no evidence to justify the diagnosis of "myelopathy" that the authors emphasized in their title and report.

DUCK-EMBRYO RABIES VACCINE [PDF]
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1956 † Improvements in the methods of immunizing against rabies are needed because neuroparalytic accidents are known to have occurred following the use of present methods. The use of embryonated duck eggs in place of rabbit brain for propagating the virus eliminates the myelin, which has been suspected of contributing to the nervous complications.

A COMPARISON OF A WI-38 VACCINE AND DUCK EMBRYO VACCINE FOR PREEXPOSURE RABIES PROPHYLAXIS
American Journal of Epidemiology, 1978 Two types of rabies vaccine, WI-38 vaccine (WRV) and Duck Embryo Vaccine (DEV) were compared in rabies preexposure prophylaxis. Once group of veterinary students received four doses of DEV, a second group received four doses of WRV, and a third group received two doses of WRV. Adverse reactions were found to be similar for all three gorups.

Preparation and Testing of Duck Embryo Cell Culture Rubella Vaccine
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1969 THE SUCCESSFUL propagation in cell culture of rubella virus by Parkman et al 1 and by Weller and Neva 2 opened the way to development of a vaccine. A prime factor in acceptability of a live virus vaccine is the cell in which it is prepared, especially if the vaccine is given parenterally.

Rabies Neutralizing Antibody: Inadequate Response to Equine Antiserum and Duck-Embryo Vaccine
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1973 After exposure to a patient with rabies, 15 hospital staff members received equine antiserum to rabies and duck-embryo rabies vaccine (DEV). Three persons (20%) had a low (

Immunologic Reaction to Duck Embryo Rabies Vaccine
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1968 Local cutaneous reactions and diffuse neurological dysfunction occurred in a patient during immunization with duck embryo rabies vaccine. Attempts to isolate an infectious agent were not successful, and it was concluded that the illness was the result of an immunologic reaction to the vaccine. The patient recovered without specific therapy. The patient'

Transverse Myelitis Caused by Duck Embryo Rabies Vaccine
Archives of Neurology, 1982 • Transverse myelitis developed in a 50-year-old man 11 days after passive and active rabies immunization. He was treated with prednisone therapy for three weeks and recovered neurologically. The patient's lymphocytes showed no blastogenic response to the vaccine administered. This is the sixth reported case of transverse myelitis caused by duck embryo

Sensitization to Duck-Embryo Rabies Vaccine Produced by Prior Yellow-Fever Vaccination
New England Journal of Medicine, 1966 RABIES vaccine derived from virus grown on Central-nervous-system tissue stimulates antibody formation against brain tissue as well as rabies. The resultant danger of inducing an isoallergic encephalomyelitis precluded utilization of such a vaccine in pre-exposure rabies prophylaxis.
