摘要

the authors report the case of a 21-month-old boy with an osteolytic lesion in the proximal region of the right humerus. based on the clinical history and histological findings, the authors suspected osteitis following bcg vaccination. symptoms remitted after antituberculosis therapy was initiated, and the patient presented radiological improvement. the authors describe this uncommon entity in pediatric practice and call attention to possible complications of bcg vaccination.
