ABSTRACT

Intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) therapy for nonmuscle-invasive bladder cancer rarely leads to the development of granulomatous renal masses (renal BCGosis). The management includes nephroureterectomy, antitubercular therapy (ATT), or both. Here, we present a case of a 62-year-old male who was treated with ATT alone for renal masses. Six months after intravesical BCG therapy for transitional cell carcinoma, he developed high-grade fever and night sweat and had multiple renal parenchymal hypodensities on computed tomography (CT) scan. Repeat CT scan 6 months after ATT revealed full resolution of renal hypodensities. This case report highlights the importance of follow-up for early detection of adverse effects of BCG treatment.
