Multiple mycotic aneurysms due to Mycobacterium bovis after intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guerin therapy
Journal of Vascular Surgery, 08/07/09
Coscas R et al. – The authors report a patient who underwent an emergency operation for a ruptured carotid aneurysm 16 months after BCG therapy. Postoperative investigations discovered multiple other synchronous aneurysms. Culture of an abscess surrounding the right carotid artery identified Mycobacterium bovis var BCG. The patient improved clinically with antituberculous agents prescribed for 9 months but died from recurrence of bladder carcinoma 16 months later.
