We report the isolation of a nutritionally fastidious mycobacterial species, Mycobacterium haemophilum, from the skin of a patient with AIDS. The diagnosis of the mycobacterial nature of the patient's lesions was complicated by extensive Kaposi's sarcoma. It is recommended that slowly growing fastidious mycobacteria be sought in any patients with unusual skin lesions.
我们报告了从一名艾滋病患者皮肤中分离出一种营养苛求型分枝杆菌——嗜血性分枝杆菌。患者病变的分枝杆菌性质诊断因广泛的卡波西肉瘤而变得复杂。建议对任何有异常皮肤病变的患者寻找生长缓慢的苛求型分枝杆菌。
