Mycobacterium gordonae is a slow growing, pigmented, nontuberculous mycobacterium. It is commonly associated with environmental contamination of clinical specimens, but it is also a recognized pathogen in immunocompromised hosts. We describe an immunocompetent child with a spontaneously occurring skin ulcer on the face caused by M. gordonae infection.
戈登分枝杆菌是一种生长缓慢、具有色素沉着的非结核分枝杆菌。它通常与临床标本的环境污染有关,但也是免疫功能低下宿主中公认的病原体。我们描述了一名免疫功能正常的儿童,其面部因戈登分枝杆菌感染而自发出现皮肤溃疡。
