BCG treatment, or Bacillus Calmette-Guérin therapy, is an immunotherapy primarily used to treat bladder cancer. It involves instilling a weakened form of the tuberculosis bacterium directly into the bladder, which stimulates the immune system to attack cancer cells. BCG treatment is often used after tumor removal to reduce the risk of recurrence. It may cause side effects such as bladder irritation and flu-like symptoms.
