Abstract excerpt

Adolfo Lutz Institute in Sao Paolo State performs mycobacterial identification for many healthcare units, and in 2008 identified a possible outbreak involving patients submitted to bronchoscopy at the same hospital. This study aimed to analyse the clonality of isolates. Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. massiliense isolated from 28 patients, water from one bronchoscope and water from four automated endoscope...
