The etiology of acute flaccid myelitis (AFM) has yet to be determined. Viral link has been suggested, but severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-associated AFM has not been reported in children. We describe a three-year-old boy, with AFM associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. In the era of COVID-19 pandemic, patients with AFM should be tested for SARS-CoV-2.
急性弛缓性脊髓炎（AFM）的病因尚未确定。有研究提示与病毒相关，但尚未有儿童发生与严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒 2（SARS-CoV-2）相关的 AFM。我们描述了一例与 2019 年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）感染相关的 AFM 患儿。在 COVID-19 大流行时期，对 AFM 患者应进行 SARS-CoV-2 检测。
