Spontaneous sputum conversion and reversion in Mycobacterium abscessus complex lung disease

27 Apr 2020

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: We aim to investigate the rate of spontaneous sputum conversion and reversion in patients with Mycobacterium abscessus complex (MABC) lung disease. METHODS: Among 241 patients diagnosed with MABC lung disease between July 2012 and December 2018, 126 patients with persistent sputum positivity for ≥ 6 months without treatment were enrolled at a tertiary referral center in South Korea. Patients were...
