Abstract

Non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections present a major challenge in both diagnosis and treatment. The management of NTM varies based on the species involved and the host's risks factors. With their prevalence continuing to rise, healthcare professionals are likely to encounter these infections more often in the years ahead. It is therefore essential to be aware of the predominant NTM species in our environment, as well as the associated risk factors. In this context, we present a study conducted at the University Hospital of Liège between 2016 and 2020, aimed at identifying the NTM species responsible for infections in the Liège area. We also explore the immune mechanisms involved in fighting these infections, focusing on primary immunodeficiencies that should be considered in adult patients with NTM infections.

[非结核分枝杆菌感染:在利弗里奇大学医院的经验和成人相关免疫缺陷的现状]。
非结核分枝杆菌(NTM)感染在诊断和治疗方面都是一个重大挑战。NTM的管理因涉及的物种和宿主的风险因素而异。随着其流行率持续上升,医疗保健专业人员可能会在未来几年更频繁地遇到这些感染。因此,有必要了解我们环境中主要的NTM物种,以及相关的风险因素。在此背景下,我们提出了2016年至2020年在li奇大学医院进行的一项研究,旨在确定li奇地区感染的NTM物种。我们还探讨了参与对抗这些感染的免疫机制,重点关注NTM感染成人患者应考虑的原发性免疫缺陷。
