Abstract

A case of cutaneous infection due to a niacin-positive Mycobacterium chelonei (previously called M. abscessus) on the dorsum of the hand of a professional cotton-classifier is reported from Hong Kong. The infection was probably directly acquired from handling contaminated raw cotton. The patient was successfully treated with combined anti-tuberculous drugs over a period of 1 year. Histologically, the skin lesion showed tuberculoid granulomas, in addition to abscesses.

摘要

香港报告了一例职业棉花分级员手部背部因烟酸阳性龟分枝杆菌（以前称为脓肿分枝杆菌）引起的皮肤感染病例。该感染可能是在处理受污染的原棉时直接获得的。患者接受联合抗结核药物治疗1年，治疗成功。组织学上，除脓肿外，皮肤病变显示结核样肉芽肿。
