Urinary Mycobacterium fortuitum infection.

B Oren1, R Raz, H Hass.   

Abstract

Mycobacterium fortuitum, a common saprophyte usually found in water and soil, can also be isolated from sputum and gastric secretions of healthy carriers. Under certain conditions, significant clinical infections due to M. fortuitum do occur. Urinary tract infections are rarely caused by atypical mycobacteria. This report describes a urinary tract infection caused by M. fortuitum in a 73-year-old patient treated with corticosteroids for bronchial asthma, who was successfully treated with ofloxacin.
