All the cultures for mycobacteriae taken from 1967 to 1973 at the Hospital General del Centro Médico Nacional del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social were reviewed. From 802 positive cultures, 361 (44.2 per cent) were atypical mycobacteriae. 89 per cent of them were scotochromogen, 10.3 per cent of rapid growth, one non-chromogen, and none were photochromogen. These data are in contrast with those observed in other countries. Isolation sources varied also from other reports, in this series the most common isolation were from urine specimens, sputum, feces and bone marrow. A possible explanation for that in this hospital there are very few pulmonary patients. The percentage of atypical mycobacteriae was greatest in the last two years. In bacterioscopic examination atypical micobacteriae were detected less frequently than M. tuberculosis.
对墨西哥社会保障局国家医学中心综合医院1967年至1973年采集的所有分枝杆菌培养物进行了回顾。在802份阳性培养物中，361份（44.2%）为非典型分枝杆菌。其中89%为暗产色菌，10.3%为快速生长菌，1份为非产色菌，无光产色菌。这些数据与其他国家观察到的数据形成对比。分离来源也与其他报告不同，在本系列中最常见的分离物来自尿液标本、痰液、粪便和骨髓。对此的一个可能解释是，这家医院的肺病患者很少。非典型分枝杆菌的百分比在过去两年中最高。在细菌学检查中，非典型分枝杆菌的检测频率低于结核分枝杆菌。
