Mycotic aortic aneurysm due to intravesical BCG immunotherapy: Clinical manifestations and diagnostic challenges.

Brittany J Holmes1, Richard W LaRue2, James H Black3, Kim Dionne1, Nicole M Parrish1, Michael T Melia4.   

Abstract

A live, attenuated form of Mycobacterium bovis, bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), is commonly used as intravesical immunotherapy for non-invasive urothelial bladder carcinoma. While complications are rare, dissemination can occur. A case of mycotic aortic aneurysm following BCG administration with recovery of Mycobacterium bovis in culture is reported. A review of the published experience with this problem is also presented.
