Short summary
This case highlights clinical and laboratory diagnostic challenges encountered with mycobacterial osteoarticular infections. Specifically, we focus on a rare complication of prosthetic joint infection following BCG therapy for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. We emphasize awareness of host risk factors to encourage consideration of mycobacteria in the relevant context.
