L Zala1, T Hunziker, L R Braathen.   

Abstract

We report on a patient with a chronic nodular cutaneous infection histologically presenting with tuberculoid granulomas and growing Mycobacterium gordonae in culture from a biopsy. The lesions were treated surgically. M. gordonae is a potentially pathogenic environmental mycobacterium only rarely causing skin infections.
