Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) refer to all mycobacteria species not associated with the complex. NTM have been shown to cause superficial and deep tissue infections of the hand, the vast majority of which are attributed to . There have been only eight cases of -associated infections of the hand described in the English literature, none requiring surgical reconstruction. We describe a severe case of -associated carpal tunnel infection reported in an immunocompetent patient requiring extensive soft tissue debridement and reconstruction. This case illustrates the importance of a multidisciplinary team approach with microbiology specialists when managing severe soft tissue infections of the hand.
非结核分枝杆菌（NTM）是指所有与结核分枝杆菌复合体无关的分枝杆菌物种。NTM已被证明可引起手部浅表和深部组织感染，其中绝大多数归因于[此处原文缺失相关内容]。英文文献中仅描述了8例与[此处原文缺失相关内容]相关的手部感染病例，均无需手术重建。我们报告了1例免疫功能正常患者发生的与[此处原文缺失相关内容]相关的严重腕管感染病例，该病例需要广泛的软组织清创和重建。该病例说明了在处理手部严重软组织感染时，与微生物学专家采用多学科团队方法的重要性。
