Mycobacterium heckeshornense sp. nov., a New Pathogenic Slowly Growing Mycobacterium sp. Causing Cavitary Lung Disease in an Immunocompetent Patient

1 Nov 2000

Abstract excerpt

A pathogenic scotochromogenic Mycobacterium xenopi-like organism was isolated from the lung of an immunocompetent young woman. This pathogen caused severe bilateral cavitary lung disease, making two surgical interventions necessary after years of chronic disease. This case prompted us to characterize this mycobacterium by a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The isolate contained chemotaxonomic markers which were...
