Unusual clinical presentation of Mycobacterium fortuitum infection in an immunocompetent woman.

Corrado Serra1, Giovanni Loi, Barbara Saddi, Marisa Pautasso, Aldo Manzin.   

Abstract

The Mycobacterium fortuitum group of rapidly growing nontuberculous mycobacteria is an uncommon cause of renal infection, particularly in otherwise healthy hosts. We describe a case of nephritis due to M. fortuitum in an immunocompetent woman with a clinical and radiological diagnosis of renal tuberculosis.
