Case Presentation: Lung Consolidation as Sequelae of BCG Sepsis After Combined Intravesical and Intraurethral BCG

BCG sepsis is rarely seen with modern intravesical therapy and therefore its presentation may not be apparent to recently trained urologists. We describe BCG sepsis occurring in a patient treated with combined intravesical and intraurethral BCG which resulted in lung consolidation with acid-fast bac...
