Vaccine associated Paralyticpolio is one of the prime concerns as far as the side effects are considered.In the past there has been concern over the relationship of Oral Polio Vaccine(OPV) with intussusception as with rotavirus vaccine.

We also discuss the factsavailable to us regarding the association of OPV with intussusception.Key words: Oral polio vaccine, intussusception.
