Antimicrobial susceptibility patterns and genotypic characteristics of Mycobacterium marinum and Mycobacterium abscessus isolated from cutaneous infections: A retrospective study
Our findings elucidate distinct antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of M. marinum and M. abscessus isolated from cutaneous infection in China, providing critical guidance for clinical treatment. Cutaneous M. abscessus isolates exhibit extensive drug resistance patterns. Subtyping and erm (41) polymorphism detection serve as reliable predictors of clarithromycin resistance in M. abscessus.
