Issue Date: | 2005 | Journal: | Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology | Abstract: | Two cases of cardiac device infection due to Mycobacterium fortuitum are reported along with a discussion of their clinical management. Long-term therapy and removal of the infected device is needed. The slow progression and absence of systemic signs and symptoms suggest a low pathogenicity of M fortuitum. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/49203 | ISSN: | 1712-9532 | DOI: | 10.1155/2005/175132 | Source: | Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology[ISSN 1712-9532],v. 16(3), p. 183-185 (Mayo-junio 2005) |
