Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Pneumonia Caused by Mycobacterium immunogenum: A Case Report and Literature Review
NTM-PD is frequently diagnosed at an advanced stage, primarily because its clinical presentation is often atypical and definitive laboratory tests are not readily available. Therefore, greater attention should be paid to the diagnosis and treatment of NTM-PD. Nontuberculous mycobacterial infections, especially clinically rare infections, need to be diagnosed without delay and their antibiotic susceptibility needs to be determined.
