The Mycobacterium abscessus complex(MABC) is one of the most common rapidly-growing non-tuberculous mycobacteria(NTM) among NTM. The immunocompromised population is the main susceptible group, and it can infect the lungs, joints, skin and other parts. Due to the fact that MABC takes 3 to 7 days for colonies to appear when it is cultured on solid medium, and its acid-fast staining smears are mostly negative, resulting in difficulties in detecting MABC. Besides, MABC has a unique cell wall structure and metabolic mechanism, which can resist the attacks of immune cells such as macrophages and neutrophils, and it also has natural and multi-drug resistance characteristics, resulting in limited efficacy against most anti-tuberculosis drugs. Moreover, the drug sensitivity test for NTM has not been carried out in most laboratories in China, and the drug sensitivity test specifically targeting rapid-growing NTM is even rarer, Which leads to long treatment cycles and unsatisfactory therapeutic effects. This article reports the diagnosis, pathogen detection and drug sensitivity test process of a case of acute suppurative parotitis caused by MABC, aiming to improve the diagnostic skills of clinicians and the detection ability of pathogen by laboratory technicians. |
