Mycobacterium abscessus lung disease is difficult to treat due to inducible resistance to macrolides. However, 15%-20% of isolates are macrolide susceptible. In 14 patients with macrolide-susceptible M. abscessus lung disease, all isolates had nonfunctional erm(41) gene, and sputum culture conversion rate was achieved in 93% (13/14) following antibiotic therapy.
脓肿分枝杆菌肺病因对大环内酯类药物具有诱导性耐药而难以治疗。然而，15% - 20%的分离株对大环内酯类药物敏感。在14例对大环内酯类药物敏感的脓肿分枝杆菌肺病患者中，所有分离株的erm(41)基因均无功能，抗生素治疗后痰培养转阴率达93%（13/14）。
