Mycobacterium thermoresistibile is a rapidly growing environmental nontuberculous mycobacterium, seldom reported in human infections. Here, we describe a rare case of tibial-nail-related osteomyelitis due to Mycobacterium thermoresistibile. We also review the literature about the infections caused by this pathogen.
Mycobacterium kansasii is a relatively common cause of nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary infection. Septic arthritis caused by Mycobacterium kansasii, on the other hand, is rare. Reported here for the first time is the case of an 82-year-old patient with an infection of a prosthetic knee joint with Mycobacterium kansasii.
BACKGROUND Nontuberculous mycobacteria are well known to be a cause of hot tub lung, however, to our knowledge, there exists no case report of humidifier lung induced by mycobacteria. CASE PRESENTATION A case of a nonimmunocompromised female patient with Mycobacterium gordonae-induced humidifier lung is described. She spontaneously recovered after discontinuing ultrasonic humidifier use. When...
Mycobacterium chimaera, a nontuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) belonging to the Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), is an opportunistic pathogen that can cause respiratory and disseminated disease. We report the complete genome sequence of a strain, SJ42, isolated from an immunocompromised male presenting with MAC pneumonia, assembled from Illumina and Oxford Nanopore data.
Mycobacterium sp. strain 4858 is a nontuberculous mycobacterium isolated from sputum in a Cambodian patient with a pulmonary infection. We report the first complete 5.6-Mbp-long genome sequence of Mycobacterium strain 4858, with 68.24% GC content, carrying 5,255 protein-coding genes, 47 tRNAs, and 3 rRNA genes.
The database of a major microbiology laboratory in Israel was searched to determine the prevalence of nontuberculous mycobacterial lymphadenitis in immunocompetent children. We observed a 4-fold increase in nontuberculous mycobacteria isolates during 1985-2006, which was attributable mainly to increased detection of Mycobacterium haemophilum starting in 1996.
The esat-6 and cfp-10 genes are essential for virulence in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Among nontuberculous mycobacteria, we found these genes only in M. kansasii, M. szulgai, M. marinum, and M. riyadhense, with unique sequences. This adds a phylogenetic and taxonomical characteristic and may represent a virulence factor for nontuberculous mycobacteria.
Mycobacterium sp. strain 3519A is a nontuberculous mycobacterium isolated from sputum from a Cambodian patient with a pulmonary infection. We report here the first complete 7.3-Mbp-long genome sequence of Mycobacterium sp. 3519A with 66.35% GC content, encoding 7,029 protein-coding genes, 50 tRNAs, and 5 rRNA genes.
We evaluated the performance of the DR. TBDR/NTM IVD kit, which was designed to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis, rifampin-resistant M. tuberculosis, and nontuberculous mycobacteria, for detecting 110 positive and 50 negative cultures in Mycobacterium Growth Indicator Tubes. The accuracy rate of this kit for identification of Mycobacterium species was 95.5% (105/110).
N ontuberculous mycobacteria rarely cause keratitis. Most reported cases have been described in compromised corneas (ie, after penetrating keratoplasty, refractive surgery, and contact lens wear). The most frequently recovered nontuberculous mycobacteria are the rapid growers, Mycobacterium fortuitum and Mycobacterium chelonae. Occasional cases of keratitis caused by the slower-growing Mycobact...
