AIM Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) immunisation is well established as part of the South African national expanded programme for immunisation (EPI). The World Health Organization (WHO) currently recommends that BCG be given to all asymptomatic infants irrespective of HIV exposure at birth but does not recommend BCG vaccination for children with symptomatic HIV infection. This approach, however, ...
Background: Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination is recommended for newborn infants worldwide to prevent tuberculosis. However, complications do occur inevitably in a very low rate, among which the most serious is disseminated disease. The disseminated bacillus Calmette–Guérin disease is a rare disease with high fatality, and can be seen among persons with an underlying immunodeficiency. ...
We report a case of Mycobacterium bovis BCG vertebral osteomyelitis in a 79-year-old man 2.5 years after intravesical BCG therapy for bladder cancer. The recovered isolate resembled M. tuberculosis biochemically, but resistance to pyrazinamide (PZA) rendered that diagnosis suspect. High-pressure liquid chromatographic studies confirmed the diagnosis of M. bovis BCG infection. The patient was or...
The bacilli Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine is administered to all newborns in countries where tuberculosis is endemic. Immunocompromised hosts, namely patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection or primary immunodeficiencies, are especially prone to serious complications from this vaccine. We report three cases of BCG disease in children with primary immunodeficiencies: one with a parti...
Interleukin 12 receptor beta 1 (IL12Rβ1) deficiency is the most common cause of Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD). MSMD usually predisposes affected individuals infections with weakly virulent mycobacteria such as Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG), environmental mycobacteria, non-typhoidal Salmonella, and certain other intracellular pathogens. presents disseminated BCG infect...
BCG (Bacillus Calmette-Guérin) immunotherapy is a method which an emerging form of cancer treatment. attaches to the bladder wall and stimulates immune response destroy cells. Complications therapy are due reactivated infection or hypersensitivity reaction thus may be treated with antimycobacterial agents, corticosteroids, both. instillations should also stopped if complications occur during tr...
Intravesical instillation of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) hasbecome an established adjuvant treatment for superficial bladdercarcinoma. This treatment is associated with a relatively high rateof side effects which are mostly reversible spontaneously or canbe treated symptomatically. Serious systemic side effects are lessfrequent. One of rare complications is gran...
OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical profile, immunological status and outcome of BCG disease in infants. METHODS All infants with a diagnosis of BCG disease in a period of 17 months were followed up. RESULTS Among 25 infants with BCG disease; 19 had local/regional involvement and 6 had suspected or confirmed distant/disseminated disease, Mean (range) age of presentation was 3.6 (1.5-9) month...
Disseminated tuberculosis is rare in infants. The more common presentations of tuberculosis (TB) in infancy include pulmonary and meningeal involvement. Disseminated TB following BCG vaccination is even rarer. The possible reasons for dissemination following BCG are faulty techniques of intra-dermal administration and use of excess doses of the vaccine. Dissemination following BCG also occurs i...
Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine is administered to all newborns in countries where tuberculosis is still endemic. It is a live attenuated vaccine and considered quite safe in immunocompetent children. Disseminated BCG disease is the most serious complication seen only in individuals with underlying primary or secondary immunodeficiencies. We report a case of disseminated BCG disease in an...
