Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. abscessus empyema complicated with subcutaneous abscess
Journal of Infection and Chemotherapy, 2020There have been no case reports of thoracic subcutaneous abscess after surgery for Mycobacterium abscessus complex associated empyema. We herein report a case of Mycobacterium abscessus subsp. abscessus (M. abscessus subsp. abscessus) induced subcutaneous abscesses following surgical treatment for concurrent M. abscessus subsp.

Mycobacterium abscessus wound infection
Australasian Journal of Dermatology, 2001SUMMARYWe report an isolated case of wound infection due to Mycobacterium abscessus following minor cutaneous surgery. The patient had routine skin cancer surgery in a private dermatology practice setting. He presented 2 weeks later with a wound infection which failed to respond to cephalexin.

Epidemiology of Mycobacterium abscessus
Clinical Microbiology and InfectionNontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are highly abundant in soil, dust, and water sources, making human-pathogen contact frequent and recurrent. NTM represents over 200 species/subspecies; some are considered strict or opportunistic pathogens. Mycobacterium abscessus, often regarded as one of the most antibiotic-resistant mycobacteria, is the second most ...

Treatment of Mycobacterium abscessus Pulmonary Disease
CHEST, 2022Mycobacterium abscessus is the second most common nontuberculous mycobacterial lung disease pathogen and comprises three subspecies: abscessus, massiliense, and bolletii. Subspecies identification is critical for disease management, as subspecies abscessus and bolletii have an inducible macrolide resistance gene [erm(41)] that results in clinical ...

Genetic Manipulation of Mycobacterium abscessus
Current Protocols in Microbiology, 2010AbstractThis unit covers genetic manipulation protocols for M. abscessus, including nucleic acid extraction (plasmid DNA, genomic DNA, and RNA), transformation, and a recombineering mutagenesis method. M. abscessus is a Biosafety Level 2 (BSL‐2) bacterium, and working considerations are also discussed. Curr. Protoc. Microbiol.

Postoperative Mycobacterium abscessus nodular conjunctivitis
Clinical & Experimental Ophthalmology, 2008AbstractNon‐tuberculous or ‘atypical’ mycobacteria are unusual causes of ocular or periocular infection. We report a case of postoperative Mycobacterium abscessus infection of the conjunctiva. A 71‐year‐old gentleman developed nodular conjunctival injection and irritation 6 weeks after cataract surgery. After failure of topical therapy with antibiotics,

Rapid diagnosis of Mycobacterium abscessus endophthalmitis
Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2013Nontuberculous mycobacteria are widely distributed in the environment and have the potential to cause a wide spectrum of infections including pulmonary, bone, soft tissue or ocular infections. They are a rare cause of endophthalmitis, a potentially devastating condition, which may be acquired through contamination of water or antiseptic solutions ...

Mycobacterium abscessus Infection in Transplant Recipients
Transplantation Proceedings, 2010Mycobacterium abscessus is a ubiquitous, rapidly growing mycobacterium that colonizes organic surfaces. It is a potential pathogen, especially in immunosuppressed patients, including transplant recipients in whom disease can range from localized cutaneous lesions to disseminated infections.
