Disseminated Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) infection after innoculation of live vaccine is considered to result from impaired immunity. However, in half of the cases, regarded as idiopathic, no well-defined immunodeficiency condition can account for the infection. The objective of this study was to report the prevalence, clinical features, associated infections, and outcome of children with id...
BACKGROUND Disseminated bacillus calmette guerin (BCG) infection is a rare but life threatening complication of BCG vaccination. It has been mainly seen in severe immune deficiency. A precise and rapid diagnosis is crucial for prompt initiation of an aggressive anti-mycobacterial treatment. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is directly applicable to smear-positive clinical specimens, proven to be...
Intravesical instillation of Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is the treatment of choice for superficial bladder carcinoma. We report a case of disseminated BCG infection in an early stage bladder cancer patient that initially presented with hepatitis followed by pneumonitis and sepsis. A complete clinical response was achieved in 14 days with anti-mycobacterial therapy and prednisolone. Dissemin...
Disseminated mycobacterial infection after Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination is a rare disorder, usually presenting with fever, weight loss, anemia, lymphadenopathy and hepatosplenomegaly. We report a case of disseminated BCG infection in a 28-month-old girl with prolonged fever and abdominal mass due to retroperitoneal abscess. Appropriate therapy resulted in a good response. This is t...
the calmette-güerin vaccine (bcg) is administered to all the newborns in iran in order to prevent tuberculosis. complications of this vaccine are uncommon. we report disseminated bcg disease in 17 patients less than 10 years old. this is a retrospective study of total of 17 cases who were admitted in children medical center hospital with systemic syndrome compatible with mycobacterium disease w...
Complete interferon-gamma receptor 1 (IFNgammaR1) deficiency has been identified previously as a cause of fatal bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) infection with lepromatoid granulomas, and of disseminated nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infection in children who had not been inoculated with BCG. We report here a kindred with partial IFNgammaR1 deficiency: one child afflicted by disseminated BCG...
INTRODUCTION In Canada, bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine is now primarily given to First Nations and Inuit (FNI) neonates living in tuberculosis (TB) endemic areas. With declining TB rates, attention has shifted from the protective effects of BCG to reports of serious vaccine-associated adverse events (VAAE). METHODS Surveillance data were reviewed to assess TB burden and trends, BCG cov...
OBJECTIVE To determine the population-based incidence of disseminated bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) disease in HIV-infected infants (aged <or= 1 year) in a setting with a high burden of tuberculosis and HIV infection coupled with a well-functioning programme for the prevention of HIV infection in infants. METHODS The numerator, or number of new cases of disseminated BCG disease, was derived f...
The attenuated strain of Mycobacterium bovis bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is the most widely used vaccine in the world. In most children, inoculation of live BCG vaccine is harmless although it occasionally leads to a benign regional adenitis. In rare cases, however, vaccination causes disseminated BCG infection, which may be lethal. Impaired immunity of the host is generally thought to be the...
