[Microdoses of BCG vaccine for prophylaxis in bladder cancer stage T1].

A prophylaxis with a minidose of BCG Vaccine (1 mgr.) is performed in vesical instillation during one year, to 108 patients bearing bladder cancer in the stage T1. In the first month the instillations are once a week, each fifteen days the second and third month and then, once a month for one year. An 19.4% of recurrences is obtained with an general average observation time of 37.3 months as well as an important increase of muster populations of T lymphocytes and a positive test of dinitroclorobenzene. As complications we have obtained an inguinal BCG adenitis and in a few cases disury and frequency for two or three days. We conclude that the doses of the BCG vaccine used during the period of one year, is satisfactory in the reduction of recurrences and without important complications.
