Introduction: Survivors of acute anterior poliomyelitis live with static neuromuscular sequelae of polio. In addition, some patients experience a syndrome of new or progressive disability, usually occurring decades after the disease itself. This syndrome, termed "post-polio syndrome" (PPS), has variable clinical manifestations.Case Report: We report the case of PPS in a 58-year-old patient, who after 55 years had paralytic poliomyelitis, developed new symptoms of fatigue, muscular atrophy, dyspnea, depression, difficulties in deambulation, muscular and joint pain. In addition, we use historical landmarks to compare and discuss the present case. Conclusion:Symptomatic relief and individualized rehabilitation strategies such as energy conservation and muscle strengthening exercise regimes are necessary. Despite a number of large clinical trials in PPS, no effective disease-modifying pharmacological treatments are currently available.

“…The fact that the oral vaccine itself provides immunity from these derived-polioviruses directs the offense strategy to increase vaccination in order to achieved full coverage of the population. 26 However, we now confront a new problem: the eradication of polio will not be so if we substitute the wild poliovirus for other vaccine-derived poliovirus. This leads the authors to consider the final problem, which will be the post-eradication strategy and which would have to go through a substitution of the oral vaccination for the dead virus injectable vaccine, more expensive and more complex in its administration, although all the research is currently directed towards obtaining a cheaper form, combined with other viruses and an intradermal application.…”

Introducción: La poliomielitis es una enfermedad que ha coexistido con la humanidad desde tiempos inmemoriales, generando un incremento en la demanda de servicios de salud y mostrando el efecto negativo del reciente episodio epidémico en algunas poblaciones donde la enfermedad había sido eliminada. Objetivo: Analizar sobre la epidemia histórica de la poliomielitis a la actualidad en la Salud Pública para un plan de intervención. Materiales y métodos: Estudio de caso, cualitativo/clínico, selección de artículos, con base de datos y revisión documental- analítico. Resultados: En 1999, Nigeria erradicó el poliovirus salvaje tipo 2, marcando un hito importante, a pesar de los cruces fronterizos ocasionales. Cinco riesgos potenciales en la actualidad para el control de la polio en todo el mundo y uno es el más preocupante, como la paralización 46 campañas de vacunación antipolio en todo el mundo debido al COVID-19 en 2020. Primer caso de Israel desde 1988. Fue la peor patología en el siglo XX y ha sido sustituida por la TB y VIH actualmente. Ataca las células de las motoneuronas, volviéndose inactiva, provocando su destrucción y propagación, dando lugar a una epidemia. Conclusiones: La poliomielitis, una de las seis enfermedades mundiales que se pretendía erradicar desde 1988, está resurgiendo en nuevos lugares y su primera consecuencia es la parálisis flácida agua post vacunal.
