Mycobacterium arupense Flexor Tenosynovitis: Case Report and Review of Antimicrobial Susceptibility Profiles for 40 Clinical Isolates
2014
We describe a case of chronic tenosynovitis in the hand of a 58-year-old cattle farmer. Surgical biopsy specimens grew Mycobacterium arupense. The patient responded to surgery and antimicrobial therapy based on in vitro susceptibility testing. The antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of the isolate from this patient and 39 additional clinical isolates are presented.
