Disseminated nontuberculous infections with Mycobacterium genavense during sarcoidosis
Sarcoidosis is a chronic disease characterised by the development and accumulation of granulomas in multiple organs. We report two observations of disseminated Mycobacterium genavense infection in patients with proven sarcoidosis.

Microaerophilic Conditions Promote Growth of Mycobacterium genavense [PDF]
ABSTRACT Our studies show that microaerophilic conditions promote the growth of Mycobacterium genavense in semisolid medium. The growth of M. genavense at 2.5 or 5% oxygen was superior to that obtained at 21% oxygen in BACTEC primary cultures (Middlebrook 7H12, pH 6.0, without ...

Mycobacterium genavense sp. nov. [PDF]
Strains of a suggested novel type of mycobacterium have been repeatedly isolated from patients with AIDS. We summarize the results of tests performed to determine enzymatic activities and metabolic properties, the results of fatty acid analyses, and the results of a comparative 16S rRNA sequence determination.

Mycobacterium genavense Infections in a Tertiary Hospital and Reviewed Cases in Non-HIV Patients. [PDF]
Mycobacterium genavense is a relatively new species of nontuberculous mycobacterium reported to cause disseminated infections in patients with AIDS and later on in non‐HIV immunosuppressed patients. We describe clinical and laboratory features and response to therapy in 7 patients, three of them with HIV infection and four non‐HIV—three organ ...
