A rapidly growing mycobacterium similar to strains in the present Mycobacterium fortuitum complex (M. fortuitum, M. peregrinum, and M. fortuitum third biovariant complex [sorbitol positive and sorbitol negative]) was isolated from a surgically placed central venous catheter tip and three cultures of blood from a 2-year-old child diagnosed with metastatic hepatoblastoma. The organism's unique phenotypic profile and ribotype patterns differed from those of the type and reference strains of the M. fortuitum complex and indicate that this organism may represent a new pathogenic taxon.
从一名被诊断患有转移性肝母细胞瘤的2岁儿童的手术置入中心静脉导管尖端及三份血培养物中分离出一种快速生长的分枝杆菌，它类似于目前偶然分枝杆菌复合体（偶然分枝杆菌、龟分枝杆菌和偶然分枝杆菌第三生物变种复合体[山梨醇阳性和山梨醇阴性]）中的菌株。该菌株独特的表型特征和核糖体分型模式与偶然分枝杆菌复合体的模式菌株和参考菌株不同，表明该菌株可能代表一个新的致病分类单元。
