pubmed:abstractText |
Interstitial cystitis is a severe debilitating bladder disease characterized by unrelenting pelvic pain and urinary frequency. A prospective, double-blind, placebo controlled study of the use of intravesical bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) in the treatment of interstitial cystitis was recently completed with a mean followup of 8 months. Results demonstrated a 60% BCG response rate, compared to a 27% placebo response rate. We now report the long-term followup results of those patients who received intravesical BCG.
