Mycobacterium abscessus: challenges in diagnosis and treatment.

Current opinion in infectious diseases - 1 Dec 2014

Benwill Jeana L, Wallace Richard J

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Mycobacterium abscessus is the most common rapidly growing mycobacterium that causes lung disease. This review describes recently published literature regarding M. abscessus taxonomy, environmental niche, diagnosis, management and outcome in pulmonary disease in adults and adolescents with cystic fibrosis. RECENT FINDINGS: The classification of M. abscessus subsp. abscessus, M. abscessus subsp....
