We summarize the prior safety record of this therapeutic modality, discuss local and systemic pathophysiological mechanisms by which dissemination might have occcurred, and review the reported clinical experience with antituberculous chemotherapy for significant bacillus Calmette-Guerin infection. Finally, we offer suggestions for prophylaxis of certain patients with a history of exposure to intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guerin. © 1990 by The American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsCited ByRose A, El-Leithy T, Dorp F, Zakaria A, Eisenhardt A, Tschirdewahn S and Rübben H (2018) Mistletoe Plant Extract in Patients with Nonmuscle Invasive Bladder Cancer: Results of a Phase Ib/IIa Single Group Dose Escalation StudyJournal of Urology, VOL. 194, NO. 4, (939-943), Online publication date: 1-Oct-2015.ELSÄSSER-BEILE U, LEIBER C, WOLF P, LUCHT M, MENGS U and WETTERAUER U (2018) ADJUVANT INTRAVESICAL TREATMENT OF SUPERFICIAL BLADDER CANCER WITH A STANDARDIZED MISTLETOE EXTRACTJournal of Urology, VOL. 174, NO. 1, (76-79), Online publication date: 1-Jul-2005.Goebell P, Otto T, Suhr J and Rübben H (2018) Evaluation of an Unconventional Treatment Modality with Mistletoe Lectin to Prevent Recurrence of Superficial Bladder Cancer: A Randomized Phase ii TrialJournal of Urology, VOL. 168, NO. 1, (72-75), Online publication date: 1-Jul-2002.KIM J and STEINBERG G (2018) THE LIMITS OF BACILLUS CALMETTE-GUERIN FOR CARCINOMA IN SITU OF THE BLADDERJournal of Urology, VOL. 165, NO. 3, (745-756), Online publication date: 1-Mar-2001.DAMM O, BRIHEIM G, HAGSTROM T, JONSSON B and SKAU T (2018) RUPTURED MYCOTIC ANEURYSM OF THE ABDOMINAL AORTA: A SERIOUS COMPLICATION OF INTRAVESICAL INSTILLATION BACILLUS CALMETTE-GUERIN THERAPYJournal of Urology, VOL. 159, NO. 3, (984-984), Online publication date: 1-Mar-1998.Kriegmair M, Waidelich R, Lumper W, Ehsan A, Baumgartner R and Hofstetter A (2018) Integral Photodynamic Treatment of Refractory Superficial Bladder CancerJournal of Urology, VOL. 154, NO. 4, (1339-1341), Online publication date: 1-Oct-1995.Reinert K and Sybrecht G (2018) T Helper Cell Alveolitis after Bacillus Calmette-Guerin Immunotherapy For Superficial Bladder TumorJournal of Urology, VOL. 151, NO. 6, (1634-1635), Online publication date: 1-Jun-1994.Hakim S, Heaney J, Heinz T and Zwolak R (2018) Psoas Abscess Following Intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin for Bladder Cancer: A Case ReportJournal of Urology, VOL. 150, NO. 1, (188-189), Online publication date: 1-Jul-1993.Izes J, Bihrle W and Thomas C (2018) Corticosteroid-Associated Fatal Mycobacterial Sepsis Occurring 3 Years after Instillation of Intravesical Bacillus Calmette-GuerinJournal of Urology, VOL. 150, NO. 5 Part 1, (1498-1500), Online publication date: 1-Nov-1993.Fishman J, Walton D, Flynn N, Benson D and Devere White R (2018) Tuberculous Spondylitis as A Complication of Intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin TherapyJournal of Urology, VOL. 149, NO. 3, (584-587), Online publication date: 1-Mar-1993.Truelson T, Wishnow K and Johnson D (2018) Epididymo-Orchitis Developing as a Late Manifestation of Intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin Therapy and Masquerading as a Primary Testicular Malignancy: A Report of 2 CasesJournal of Urology, VOL. 148, NO. 5 Part 1, (1534-1535), Online publication date: 1-Nov-1992.Gonzalez J, Marcol B and Wolf M (2018) Complications of Intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin: A Case ReportJournal of Urology, VOL. 148, NO. 6, (1892-1893), Online publication date: 1-Dec-1992.Morales A, Nickel J and Wilson J (2018) Dose-Response of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin in the Treatment of Superficial Bladder CancerJournal of Urology, VOL. 147, NO. 5, (1256-1258), Online publication date: 1-May-1992.Ratliff T (2018) Editorial CommentsJournal of Urology, VOL. 147, NO. 3 Part 1, (697-697), Online publication date: 1-Mar-1992.Catalona W (2018) Editorial CommentsJournal of Urology, VOL. 146, NO. 4, (1119-1119), Online publication date: 1-Oct-1991.
