The Incidence of Non-tuberculous Mycobacterium Lung Disease in Patients with Suspected Pulmonary Tuberculosis.

Myeong Hee Kim1, Yee Hyung Kim2, So Young Kang1, Woo In Lee1.   

Abstract

Non-tuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) lung disease is increasing in prevalence. We analyzed the frequency of NTM lung disease among patients who are suspected of tuberculosis. NTM was isolated from about one-fourth of the mycobacterium culture-positive patients and about half of these had NTM lung disease. Therefore, NTM isolates should be routinely identified at the species level for adequate treatment.
