Abstract

Longitudinal Extensive Transverse Myelitis (LETM) is a recognized devastating post-vaccination complication. Global reports on post-vaccination side effects have reported cases of LETM following COVID-19 vaccination with BioNTech vaccine and AstraZeneca vaccines. Here, we report the first case of a patient who experienced LETM following the first dose of Sinopharm vaccine.
