Abstract EN
Intravesical instillation of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin is one of the standard treatment options for superficial bladder cancer.
While Bacillus Calmette-Guerin therapy is usually well tolerated with most patients experiencing only cystitis, in rare cases, it can lead to disseminated granulomatous disease.
We present a case of a 72-year-old man with disseminated granulomatous disease from intravesical BCG instillation whose treatment was complicated by antimycobacterial drug toxicity.
