Extrapulmonary Mycobacterium abscessus Infections, France, 2012-20201.
Mycobacterium abscessus infection is challenging to treat. Extrapulmonary M. abscessus infections (EP-MAB) are less common than pulmonary M. abscessus infections. To evaluate treatment regimens, we retrospectively analyzed consecutive microbiologically confirmed EP-MAB cases diagnosed in France during 2012-2020. We studied 45 patients with EP-MAB, including 14 bone and joint infections, 10 skin and soft tissue infections, and 8 lymph node infections. Most (62%) patients had no reported immunodeficiency. In 27 patients, EP-MAB followed healthcare-associated (44%) or environmental (16%) injuries. Of the 45 isolates, 25 were subspecies abscessus, 10 bolletii, and 9 massiliense; 1 was unidentified. Cure was achieved for 36 (80%) patients who received a median antimicrobial regimen of 6 months; 22 (55%) also underwent surgery. Four patients died, and 5 were unavailable for follow-up. EP-MAB predominantly affects immunocompetent patients after an injury; outcomes are favorable. We propose a >6-month regimen of antimicrobial therapy with consideration for surgery and regular patient reassessment.
期刊介绍:
Emerging Infectious Diseases is a monthly open access journal published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The primary goal of this peer-reviewed journal is to advance the global recognition of both new and reemerging infectious diseases, while also enhancing our understanding of the underlying factors that contribute to disease emergence, prevention, and elimination.
Targeted towards professionals in the field of infectious diseases and related sciences, the journal encourages diverse contributions from experts in academic research, industry, clinical practice, public health, as well as specialists in economics, social sciences, and other relevant disciplines. By fostering a collaborative approach, Emerging Infectious Diseases aims to facilitate interdisciplinary dialogue and address the multifaceted challenges posed by infectious diseases.
