Article Synopsis
- A 70-year-old patient with a history of bladder cancer treated with BCG developed symptoms like fever, fatigue, and a painful back lesion initially thought to be herpes zoster.
- Despite antiviral treatment and antibiotics, his condition worsened, leading to further imaging and biopsies that revealed non-caseating granulomas and confirmed disseminated BCG-itis.
- Treatment with a combination of antibiotics and corticosteroids ultimately resolved the skin lesions and improved the patient's health, highlighting the need for careful diagnosis in similar cases.
