Mycobacterium genavense Infection and Survival

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1995
We read with interest the article by Pechere and colleagues 1 on Mycobacterium genavense infection in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection. Based on a comparison of survival with CD4 cell count—matched controls, the authors concluded that M genavense infection lessens survival . Clearly, there are biological reasons to believe that this

Disseminated Mycobacterium genavense infection

AIDS, 1993
Mycobacterium genavense is a newly described pathogen that causes disseminated infection in AIDS. It is difficult to detect and identify due to its slow growth and fastidious nature. There is little information available about therapy for this new pathogen.

Disseminated Mycobacterium genavense infection in a healthy boy

Human Pathology, 2010
Mycobacterium genavense (M genavense) has been recognized as a life-threatening pathogen in severely immunocompromised patients. To our knowledge, disseminated M genavense infection has never been described in immunocompetent individuals. Here, we report a case of disseminated M genavense infection in a healthy Japanese boy.

Disseminated "Mycobacterium genavense" infection in patients with AIDS

The Lancet, 1992
We describe 18 patients with advanced HIV infection, most of whom had a chronic illness characterised by fever, diarrhoea, and massive loss of weight. Biopsy and necropsy samples revealed abundant acid-fast microorganisms in intestines, liver, spleen, lymph nodes, and many other tissues, which did not grow on solid media, although limited growth was ...

Disseminated Mycobacterium genavense infection in Canadian AIDS patients

Tubercle and Lung Disease, 1995
Mycobacterium genavense is a recently described mycobacterial species which thus far has been identified only in persons with advanced HIV disease. It appears to be a rare pathogen with an undefined reservoir. We describe the first two cases of M. genavense infection in Canadian AIDS patients.

Disseminated Mycobacterium genavense Infection in a Chinchilla (Chinchilla lanigera)

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2014
A 1-year-old neutered male chinchilla (Chinchilla lanigera) was presented with emaciation and a 1-month history of progressive weight loss. The animal was bright and responsive on clinical examination, but had poor body condition. Serum biochemical analysis revealed elevated alanine amino transferase and alkaline phosphatase. Ultrasound examination was

Mycobacterium genavense Infection and Survival-Reply

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1995
In reply The points raised by Glesby and Hoover are well taken. It is indeed difficult to tease out the multiple factors that influence prognosis in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection, and we have been appropriately cautious in our conclusions.

Mycobacterium genavense and Mycobacterium avium mixed infection in an AIDS patient

Clinical Microbiology Newsletter, 1995
Several mixed nontuberculous mycobacterial infections have been reported in AIDS patients (l-5), and their prevalence is probably underestimated owing to the lack of differentiation of morphologically similar colonies in mixed cultures. Mixed infections are most difficult to detect when the coinfecting species, like Mycobacterium genavense, fails to ...

MYCOBACTERIUM GENAVENSEIN AN AFRICAN PENGUIN (SPHENISCUS DEMERSUS)

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2015
A 19-yr-old female African penguin (Spheniscus demersus) presented with labored breathing and anorexia. Radiographs revealed soft-tissue density lesions in the left lung fields and fluid in the right. The penguin died during the night. Postmortem examination demonstrated multiple granulomas in the lungs and air sacs.
