摘要
We describe a 65-year-old man with a granulomatous hepatitis and a progressive mycotic aneurysm of the abdominal aorta. One year before he received intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) for carcinoma of the bladder without any complaints. Only post-mortem investigations could confirm that he suffered from a systemic BCG infection. Literature is reviewed for this rare complication. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
