Pseudogaucher Cells in Cutaneous Mycobacterium Avium Intracellulare Infection
The American Journal of Dermatopathology, 1999We report on a patient infected with human immunodeficiency virus, and with cutaneous Mycobacterium avium intracellulare, in whom many cells with abundant reticulated cytoplasm resembling the characteristic cells of Gauchers disease ("pseudogaucher cells") were noted within the dermal infiltrate on biopsy.

Endobronchial Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare Infection in a Patient with AIDS
Chest, 1989The pulmonary manifestations of AIDS are well described in the medical literature; however, MAI infection presenting as an endobronchial lesion has not, to our knowledge, been reported in a patient with AIDS. We report a unique case of an AIDS patient who developed endobronchial polypoid lesions secondary to MAI infection.

Cutaneous Mycobacterium avium‐intracellulare infection masquerading as sarcoidosis
Pediatric DermatologyAbstractMycobacterium avium‐intracellulare (MAC) infection may have different skin manifestations, including cutaneous granulomas. Granulomatous skin reactions have distinct morphologic and histopathologic appearances. We present the case of an adolescent male with cutaneous MAC, misdiagnosed as sarcoidosis after initial biopsy results, demonstrated ...

DisseminatedMycobacterium avium–intracellulareInfection in a Persian Cat
Journal of Veterinary Medicine, Series B, 2004SummaryThis report describes a disseminated infection with mycobacteria of the avium/intracellulare complex in a Persian cat in the absence of cutaneous lesions. Postmortem examination revealed severe granulomatous inflammation with numerous intrahistiocytic acid‐fast bacilli in multiple organs.

PNEUMOCYSTIS CARINII AND MYCOBACTERIUM AVIUM-INTRACELLULARE INFECTION OF THE CHOROID
Retina, 1992It has been hypothesized that coinfection with mycobacteria occurs in patients with Pneumocystis carinii choroiditis, but cases demonstrating ocular infection by both organisms have not been reported. This study reports the case of a patient with P.

2011Imaging description There are several ways that mycobacterium avium-intracellulare complex (MAC) infections can present in the chest. The classic appearance of MAC infection is indistinguishable from that of pulmonary tuberculosis. However, there is another presentation which has been called the “non-classical” pattern that is virtually diagnostic of

Markers Indicating Deterioration of Pulmonary Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare Infection
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 1999To predict the natural history of pulmonary Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare (MAI) infection with nodular bronchiectasis, we retrospectively evaluated clinical manifestations, laboratory data, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) findings in 57 patients.

Disseminated Mycobacterium avium--intracellulare complex infection in a miniature schnauzer
Journal of the American Animal Hospital Association, 1995A two-year-old, spayed female, miniature schnauzer was evaluated for respiratory distress associated with a compressive cervical mass. Generalized mycobacterial infection was diagnosed from aspirates of several enlarged lymph nodes. Tissue specimens further identified Mycobacterium avium--intracellulare using polymerase chain reaction followed by ...
