Disseminated Mycobacterium Bovis Infection in an Immunodeficient Child: A Case with Cutaneous Lesions

Observation: Disseminated bacillus Calmette-Guerin infection is an uncommon condition which is usually associated with primary immunodeficiency. It is characterized by multiple and disseminated cutaneous lesions associated with systemic involvement. Here, we describe a case of disseminated bacillus Calmette-Guerin infection in a patient with severe combined immunodeficiency.
