Disseminated Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) infection of the upper and lower extremities in an infant produces similar images (June–September 2012). (a) Bilateral lateral and anteroposterior conventional radiographs of the lower parts of both legs show multiple radiolucent cystic lytic areas of bone destruction with minimal periosteal reaction and bone widening in the distal diaphysis of tibia and fibula. (b) Conventional posteroanterior radiographs of both hands revealed periosteal elevation and multiple small lytic lesions with bone widening in the proximal phalanges of the fourth fingers bilaterally.
