We report on a case of inadvertent intramuscular injection of BCG vaccine into an already tuberculin-sensitive individual which resulted in a severe and prolonged local reaction. There is no consensus on the best management of this complication, although in this case healing appeared to be hastened by anti-tuberculous chemotherapy.Mesh:
