Abstract
Although intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) administration is an effective method in the treatment of superficial urinary bladder carcinoma, some complications may arise such as a granulomatous reaction either in the urinary tract or, in rare cases, outside the urinary tract. We report in this paper a case of granulomatous hepatitis following intravesical BCG administration.
