We describe a 7-year-old Peruvian boy who presented with a 2 week history of conjunctivitis, urethritis and arthritis, in whom Mycobacterium phlei was the only organism repeatedly isolated from synovial fluid and tissue and who responded to conventional antituberculous therapy. To our knowledge this is the first documented case of human disease caused by this microorganism.
我们描述了一名7岁的秘鲁男孩，他有2周的结膜炎、尿道炎和关节炎病史，从其滑膜液和组织中反复分离出的唯一病原体是草分枝杆菌，且他对传统抗结核治疗有反应。据我们所知，这是该微生物引起人类疾病的首例有记录的病例。
