Treatment of Calmette-Guérin bacillus adenitis: a metaanalysis.

J S Goraya1, V S Virdi.   

Abstract

Various treatments have been used to decrease the risk of suppuration; the most troublesome complication of Calmette-Guerin bacillus adenitis, but results are controversial. Metaanalysis of four randomized controlled trials revealed no significant difference in the frequency of suppuration between the treatment and control groups for all treatments [relative risk (RR), 1.10; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.88 to 1.38], erythromycin (RR 1.04; 95% CI 0.79 to 1.37) and isoniazid (RR 1.35; 95% CI 0.84 to 2.18). Therefore medical treatment does not reduce the frequency of suppuration in Calmette-Guerin bacillus adenitis.
