The patient\u2019s reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction test was positive, and Thorax CT imaging showed a few ground-glass pneumonic infiltrations in bilateral lung bases consistent with COVID-19 disease. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title><jats:p> Although international urology associations have current recommendations regarding the pandemic process, only one study has made specific recommendations regarding the patient group diagnosed with COVID-19 while receiving intravesical BCG treatment. According to this recommendation, we interrupted our patient\u2019s BCG treatment for 3\u2009weeks and then completed the treatment for 6\u2009weeks. A maintenance treatment not exceeding 1\u2009year was planned. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title><jats:p> This group of patients\u2019 recommendation is to delay BCG therapy for at least 3\u2009weeks after initial symptoms to allow for complete recovery. Although the administration schedule varies, maintenance therapy is recommended for no more than 1\u2009year. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/03915603211001670","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,12]],"date-time":"2021-03-12T10:44:07Z","timestamp":1615545847000},"page":"195-197","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Disease management in a patient diagnosed with COVID-19 disease during induction intravesical BCG therapy: A case report and review of the literature"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"90","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8785-9867","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fesih","family":"Ok","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, Siirt Training and Research Hospital, Siirt, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Emrullah","family":"Durmus","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, Siirt Training and Research Hospital, Siirt, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-03915603211001670","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jmv.26300"},{"key":"bibr2-03915603211001670","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.eururo.2020.04.039"},{"key":"bibr3-03915603211001670","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.eururo.2020.04.056"},{"key":"bibr4-03915603211001670","unstructured":"American Urological Association.
