Abstract

The administration of intravesical bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) in early stages of bladder cancer is usually a safe therapy. Side-effects of BCG immunotherapy can be of both local and systemic nature. We report the first case of Henoch-Schönlein purpura following intravesical administration of BCG.
