Chronic ulceration from Mycobacterium marinum infection and the diagnostic value of T-cell interferon-gamma release assays.

Emilio V Perez-Jorge1, Steven D Burdette.   

Abstract

This case report describes the differential diagnosis of cutaneous ulcerations and the utility of the interferon-gamma release assays as a tool to aid in the diagnosis. These new assays can be used to identify mycobacterial infections (specifically Mycobacterium marinum) as the etiologic agents.
