ABSTRACT

The BCG (bacillus Calmette-Guérin) vaccine included in the national vaccination scheme for newborns with adequate weight, aims to protect the infant population against tuberculosis. Adverse events have been classified as localized and disseminated, the most frequent are erythema, ulcer at the injection and lymphadenitis with the growth of ipsilateral regional lymph nodes. A case of BCGosis in a nursling with severe combined immunodeficiency with the clinical presentation is discussed.
