Mycobacterium marinum infection from sea monkeys.

Jaclyn Leblanc1, Duncan Webster, Gregory J Tyrrell, Isabelle Chiu.   

Abstract

A case of cutaneous Mycobacterium marinum infection acquired from Artemia nyos (sea monkeys) is presented. The infection was unresponsive to initial antimicrobial therapies. A biopsy of a lesion revealed granulomatous inflammation with cultures that subsequently grew M marinum. A three-month course of clarithromycin provided complete resolution.
