Blaine D Smith1, Ioannis N Liras1, Ignacio A De Cicco1, Gabriel Marcelo Aisenberg1.   

Abstract

Mycobacterium fortuitum is a non-tuberculous mycobacterium found in the soil and water of most regions of the world, and it can cause disease in immunocompetent and immunocompromised hosts. We present a 52-year-old man who developed a scalp abscess under a free flap for cranium coverage after a motor vehicle accident. Culture of material drained from the abscess grew M. fortuitum. 2016 BMJ Publishing Group Ltd.
