Single course of intravesical Bacillus Calmette & #8211;Guerin versus single course with maintenance therapy in the management of nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer: A prospective randomized study

Maintenance doses of BCG are significantly associated with a higher incidence of local adverse effects than induction doses alone.
