Title: BCGitis in a patient with transient hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy. Author: Lynch M, O'Loughlin A, Devaney D, O'Donnell B. Journal: Pediatr Dermatol; 2014; 31(6):750-1. PubMed ID: 23253103. Abstract: Reactions to the Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine are not uncommon and have been reported in association with immunodeficiency syndromes. We report a case of an infant developing a localized BCG reaction, confirmed histologically, associated with transient hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy. Conservative management of localized BCG reactions is appropriate in most cases.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
