The case of a Chinese boy with no medical history, who presented with diarrhea and weight loss of 14-month duration and rashes and fever or 6-month duration, is described. The patient was finally diagnosed with disseminated Mycobacterium avium complex infection by skin biopsy and tissue culture. This case shows that Mycobacterium avium complex infection should be considered even in an immunocompetent patient with diarrhea and skin lesions.
本文描述了一例无既往病史的中国男孩，其主要表现为腹泻和 14 个月的体重减轻，以及皮疹和发热或 6 个月的发热。患者最终通过皮肤活检和组织培养诊断为播散性鸟分枝杆菌复合体感染。本病例表明，即使在免疫功能正常的腹泻和皮肤病变患者中，也应考虑鸟分枝杆菌复合体感染。
