Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1994
The ubiquitous MAC causes disseminated disease in a large proportion of patients with AIDS. It will become an increasingly important clinical pathogen as more patients survive within the context of prolonged immunodeficiency. The primary risk factor for DMAC is CD4 < 100 mm3 and thus the institution of adequate prophylaxis will significantly reduce its

Mycobacterium avium Complex Infection
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1988NOTrE FROM DR. MERLE A. SANDE The issues addressed in this AIDS Commentary are complex ones. Are organisms that constitute the Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) significant pathogens in the patients infected with HIV? If they are, how should these infections in this population of patients be treated? Dr. Lowell S.

Sporotrichoid cutaneous Mycobacterium avium complex infection
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2002Mycobacterium avium complex, a common opportunistic pathogen among patients with AIDS, usually manifests as disseminated disease involving the lung, lymph nodes, and gastrointestinal tract. Primary cutaneous infections with M avium complex are extremely rare, and most cutaneous lesions are caused by dissemination.

Radiometric Quantification of Mycobacterium avium Complex
European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 1998The purpose of this study was to establish a system that would allow rapid and reliable quantification of Mycobacterium avium complex infection with a method that was as sensitive as counting of colony-forming units but less time-consuming and safer in the laboratory.

Abstract is a mycobacterial organism found throughout nature in water and soil. The specific strains responsible for most human disease, however, are not the most common environmental isolates, suggesting differential levels of strain virulence.

Clarithromycin against Mycobacterium avium complex infections
Tubercle and Lung Disease, 1996The turning point in antimicrobial therapy of Mycobacterium avium infections came with the development of two new macrolides, clarithromycin and azithromycin. Controlled clinical trials, the first ever conducted with any agent among patients with M. avium infection, indicated the high efficiency of clarithromycin, in either acquired immune deficiency ...

Mycobacterium avium complex pleuritis.
Respiration; international review of thoracic diseases, 2003Non-tuberculous mycobacterium infection is rarely accompanied by pleural involvement. We report a very rare case of Mycobacterium avium-intracellurare complex (MAC) pleuritis with massive pleural effusion. The patient was a non-compromised 67-year-old female and had been treated for pulmonary non-tuberculous mycobacterium infection. She was admitted to

Treatment of Mycobacterium avium Complex (MAC)
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2018Abstract Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) is the most commonly isolated nontuberculous mycobacterial respiratory pathogen worldwide. MAC lung disease is manifested either by fibrocavitary radiographic changes similar to pulmonary tuberculosis or by bronchiectasis with nodular and reticulonodular radiographic changes.
