Thanks to compulsory vaccination schedules measles does not belong to everyday clinical practice. Recently, many local outbreaks have been noticed. In the winter and early summer of 2014 22 cases of measles were diagnosed in the Department of Infectious Diseases and Child Neurology of the University of Medical Sciences in Poznań. Basing on the medical records it has been found that that none of the children were vaccinated against measles. In the majority of cases reasons for resignations from vaccines were not known. Clinical course was typical: half of the patients developed Koplik spots, photophobia and conjunctivitis. Characteristic exanthem was present behind the ears and spread as maculopapular pink rash spreading to the face, neck, the trunk and finally the limbs. The most common complications included lower respiratory tract infections – bronchitis and pneumonia observed in 9 children. The duration of the hospital stay was only a day longer in the case of children with developed complications. The majority of infections were present in the gipsy population.Due to significant (also remote, neurological) complications and dangerous tendencies to resign from vaccinations totally, the problem of measles remains present, although in a lesser extent. The most common complications include lower respiratory tract infections, typical for the acute phase of the disease. In Poland outbreaks of infections were observed among unvaccinated children, who can easily infect younger children before their scheduled vaccine.
