Abstract

Intravesical instillation of Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin ( BCG ) has been shown to be an effective form of immunotherapy for bladder cancer. This case report describes a patient who develops systemic BCG ‐osis following intravesical BCG instillation and demonstrates the importance of being aware of more severe complications associated with BCG immunotherapy.
