[The isolation of nontuberculous mycobacteria and the pulmonary infections of nontuberculous mycobacteria in the general hospital].

open access: yesKekkaku : [Tuberculosis], 1994
In the past eight years, we experienced 94 cases of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) isolation from the specimens of sputum, gastric juice, pleural fluid and fiberoptic bronchoscopic procedure at Chiba Kaihin Municipal Hospital. The species of NTM were M. avium complex (MAC) in 23, M. gordonae in 15, M. kansasii in 12, M. fortuitum in 8, M.
