Abstract
We report a fatal case of disseminated Mycobacteriumsimiae infection in an immunocompetent elderly man with fever of unknown origin. The diagnosis was based on culture isolation of non-tuberculous mycobacteria from cerebrospinal fluid and bronchoalveolar lavage. Both culture isolates were identified as M. simiae by 16S rRNA gene sequencing.
摘要
我们报告了一例免疫功能正常的老年男性播散性猿分枝杆菌感染致死病例，该患者有不明原因发热。诊断基于从脑脊液和支气管肺泡灌洗中培养分离出非结核分枝杆菌。通过16S rRNA基因测序，这两个培养分离株均被鉴定为猿分枝杆菌。
