Abstract
Mycobacterium neoaurum infection has rarely been found in humans, and only a limited number of cases have been reported. We describe the first case of pulmonary infection with M. neoaurum. We speculate that unrecognized aspiration and long-term corticosteroid therapy predisposed our patient to this rare mycobacterial infection.
摘要
新金分枝杆菌感染在人类中很少见，仅有少数病例被报道。我们描述了首例新金分枝杆菌肺部感染病例。我们推测，未被识别的误吸和长期使用皮质类固醇治疗使我们的患者易患这种罕见的分枝杆菌感染。
