. Intravesicular Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is an effective adjunctive therapy for superficial bladder cancer that has been shown to delay recurrence and progression of disease. Serious side effects are relatively rare but are difficult to diagnosis and commonly overlooked. . We report the case of a patient who was found to have mycotic aortic aneurysms secondary to treatment with BCG after a prolonged course with multiple intervening hospitalizations. . Through this report, we discuss our present understanding of BCG infection following treatment and review the literature regarding this particular rare manifestation.
膀胱内灌注卡介苗（BCG）是浅表性膀胱癌的一种有效辅助治疗方法，已被证明可延缓疾病的复发和进展。严重副作用相对少见，但难以诊断且常被忽视。我们报告一例患者，在经历了漫长病程并多次住院治疗后，因卡介苗治疗继发霉菌性主动脉瘤。通过本报告，我们讨论目前对卡介苗治疗后感染的认识，并回顾关于这种特殊罕见表现的文献。
