Mycobacterium chelonae-abscessusComplex Associated with Sinopulmonary Disease, Northeastern USA

17 Aug 2011

Abstract excerpt

Members of the Mycobacterium chelonae-abscessus complex represent Mycobacterium species that cause invasive infections in immunocompetent and immunocompromised hosts. We report the detection of a new pathogen that had been misidentified as M. chelonae with an atypical antimicrobial drug susceptibility profile. The discovery prompted a multicenter investigation of 26 patients. Almost all patients were from the...
