| pulmonary mycobacterium intermedium disease in an elderly man with healed pulmonary tuberculosis. | a 76-year-old man with a history of pulmonary tuberculosis was found to be sputum smear positive for acid-fast bacilli. the 16s rrna sequence identified the culture isolate as mycobacterium intermedium, the pathogenicity of which has not been confirmed. chemotherapy with isoniazid, rifampin, and ethambutol resulted in clinical improvement. | 2005 | 15750138 |
| mycobacterium intermedium granulomatous dermatitis from hot tub exposure. | nontuberculous mycobacteria, which are widespread in the environment, frequently cause opportunistic infections in immunocompromised patients. we report the first case of a patient with chronic granulomatous dermatitis caused by a rarely described organism, mycobacterium intermedium. the infection was associated with exposure in a home hot tub. | 2006 | 16704844 |

| mycobacterium intermedium sp. nov. | strains of a new type of slowly growing mycobacterium were repeatedly isolated from sputum from a patient with pulmonary disease. this photochromogenic organism grew at 22, 31, 37, and 41 degrees c, possessed catalase, acid phosphatase, esterase, beta-galactosidase, and arylsulfatase activities, and hydrolyzed tween. it did not produce nicotinic acid or have nitrate reductase, acetamidase, benzamidase, isonicotinamidase, nicotinamidase, pyrazinamidase, succinidamidase, and acid phosphatase activ ... | 1993 | 8494735 |
| mycobacterium bourgelatii sp. nov., a rapidly growing, non-chromogenic species isolated from the lymph nodes of cattle. | three independent strains of a rapidly growing, non-chromogenic member of the genus mycobacterium were isolated from lymph nodes of french cattle. identification of the isolates was carried out using a polyphasic approach. the nearly complete ssu rrna gene sequences (>1200 bp) of the strains mlb-a23, mlb-a30 and mlb-a84(t) were identical. a phylogenetic analysis of these unique ssu rrna gene sequences showed that these strains were most closely related to mycobacterium intermedium. further phylo ... | 2013 | 23990648 |
| mixed cutaneous infection caused by mycobacterium szulgai and mycobacterium intermedium in a healthy adult female: a rare case report. | nontuberculous mycobacteria (ntms) are ubiquitous and are being increasingly reported as human opportunistic infection. cutaneous infection caused by mixed ntm is extremely rare. we encountered the case of a 46-year-old female, who presented with multiple discharging sinuses over the lower anterior abdominal wall (over a previous appendectomy scar) for the past 2 years. microscopy and culture of the pus discharge were done to isolate and identify the etiological agent. finally, genotype mycobact ... | 2015 | 25789180 |
