| failure of doxycycline treatment in aquarium-associated mycobacterium marinum infections. | two cases of aquarium-associated mycobacterium marinum infections are described. neither was cured by the initial therapy consisting of surgical excision followed by doxycycline treatment. both strains of m. marinum were shown to be resistant to doxycycline. in one patient the lesions were subsequently healed with cotrimoxazole. the other patient, a 12-year-old girl with sporotrichoid spread of the lesions on the lower arm, failed to respond satisfactorily to a combination of rifampicin and etha ... | 1987 | 3423745 |
