A Rare Immune Disorder Revealed by an Unusual Chest Wall Granuloma Due to BCG Vaccination in a Child

Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccination is known to be safe. Causing tuberculous chest wall in a 12-month-old girl is certainly uncommon. This case demonstrates that such as complication may confuse with a chest wall tumor and need several investigations for the definite diagnosis. We should keep in mind a high index of suspicion of immune disorder in any infant with atypical clinical findings.
