Mycobacterium europaeum, of Mycobacterium simiae complex, is a rare nontuberculous mycobacterium associated with human diseases. We report a case with an isolate from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and summarize M. europaeum cases from literature. M. europaeum may cause respiratory infections and colonization in immunocompromised, elderly, and/or chronic pulmonary illness patients.
欧洲分枝杆菌属于猿分枝杆菌复合群,是一种与人类疾病相关的罕见非结核分枝杆菌。我们报告了一例从支气管肺泡灌洗 fluid 中分离出的病例,并总结了文献中的欧洲分枝杆菌病例。欧洲分枝杆菌可能在免疫功能低下、老年人和/或患有慢性肺部疾病的患者中引起呼吸道感染和定植。 (注:原文中“bronchoalveolar lavage fluid”未完整翻译,推测为“支气管肺泡灌洗液体”,可根据实际情况调整)
