We report on a Mycobacterium monacense infection associated with a pulmonary tumor in a Chinese patient. To our knowledge, this is the first case of M. monacense described in a non-European patient with a tuberculosis-like disease. Further evaluation of the human pathogenic potential of M. monacense is needed.
我们报告了一名中国患者中与肺部肿瘤相关的蒙氏分枝杆菌感染病例。据我们所知,这是首例在非欧洲患者中描述的患有类结核疾病的蒙氏分枝杆菌病例。需要对蒙氏分枝杆菌的人类致病潜力进行进一步评估。
