Organisms of the Mycobacterium fortuitum complex are an uncommon but important cause of periprosthetic infection following augmentation mammoplasty or other breast surgery. This etiological agent must be considered in the particular case of periprosthetic infection, because special handling of the fluid is crucial to enhance recovery of the organism. We describe the computed tomography (CT) and mammographic findings in such an abscess with respect to the clinical context and subsequent management. To our knowledge, CT findings associated with any periprosthetic breast infection have not been described.
偶然分枝杆菌复合体的微生物是隆乳术或其他乳房手术后假体周围感染的罕见但重要的病因。在假体周围感染的特定病例中必须考虑这种病原体,因为对液体进行特殊处理对于提高该微生物的回收率至关重要。我们根据临床情况和后续处理描述了这种脓肿的计算机断层扫描(CT)和乳房X线摄影结果。据我们所知,尚未描述与任何假体周围乳房感染相关的CT表现。
