Systemic dissemination and peri-prosthetic infection of Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) following intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) therapy presents a rare but significant complication of treatment for non-muscle invasive bladder carcinoma. We present a patient with Mycobacterium bovis infection of a prosthetic hip nine months following BCG therapy for bladder cancer. The debridement and (implant) prosthesis retention approach in conjunction with anti-tuberculous medication (DAIR) employed in this case, allowed the same prosthesis to be retained. This case report highlights the importance of physician awareness of the possibility BCG peri-prosthetic infections.
