The immune reconstitution syndrome caused by nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infection is reported in 9 of 153 HIV-infected children 2 to 26 weeks after initiation of antiretroviral therapy. The clinical syndrome included fever and dyspnea (2 children), fever and abdominal pain (3), subcutaneous nodules or suppurative lymphadenitis (4). The causative species were Mycobacterium avium (4), Myc...
MICs of clarithromycin against 324 clinical isolates belonging to eight species of slowly growing nontuberculous mycobacteria were determined by using a broth microdilution system. Isolates were inoculated into twofold drug dilutions in Middlebrook 7H9 broth (pH corrected to 7.4) and then incubated at 30 degrees C for 7 days for Mycobacterium marinum and for 14 days for all other species. The M...
Nontuberculous mycobacteria are ubiquitous in the environment but rarely infect immunocompetent patients. We describe a pediatric case of Mycobacterium simiae complex lymphadenitis in an immunocompetent child and review the natural history, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and current management of the disease.
TOPIC: Chest Infections TYPE: Fellow Case Reports INTRODUCTION: Mycobacterium Simiae (M. Simiae) is a slow-growing photochromogenic mycobacterium transmitted by inhalation of aerosols or inoculation. It has been recognized as causative agent pulmonary and disseminated disease. Lack standardized treatment regimen makes treating M.Simiae challenge. Here we present case multi-drug resistant with i...
Fourteen mycobacterial strains isolated from pulmonary samples of independent patients in the state of Pará (Brazil), and three strains isolated in Italy, were characterized using a polyphasic approach. Thorough genetic investigation, including whole-genome sequencing, demonstrated that the strains belong to the M. simiae complex, being most closely related to Mycobacterium interjectum. For 14 ...
The aim of the present study was to determine the clinical relevance of Mycobacterium simiae isolation from clinical samples. The medical files of patients in the Netherlands from whom M. simiae was isolated between 1999 and 2006 were reviewed in order to assess frequency and clinical relevance. Clinical relevance was defined as fulfilment of the diagnostic criteria of the American Thoracic Soc...
A standardized clarithromycin susceptibility test for Mycobacterium genavense is reported. The BACTEC radiometric broth dilution test method recommended for Mycobacterium avium complex was modified to develop a reliable and reproducible procedure. Test development involved optimization of medium pH and inoculum densities for antibiotic vials as well as growth control vials. MIC control organism...
'Mycobacterium sherrisii' is an undescribed species that appears to be emerging, in particular, among HIV-positive patients originating from Africa. To describe 'M. sherrisii', to ensure that the species name is validly published and to define its phylogenetic position, we collected 11 of these strains reported in five previous studies, and subjected them to biochemical identification, cell-wal...
We examined the mycolic acid composition of 133 strains belonging to MAIS complex (Mycobacterium avium-M. intracellulare-M. scrofulaceum) and MAIS intermediate strains and the related species M. asiaticum, M. malmoense, M. shimoidei, and M. simiae. The analysis revealed that about 10% of the strains identified as M. avium-M. intracellulare complex by conventional cultural and biochemical tests ...
