Clinical features of Mycobacterium abscessus complex and Mycobacterium kansasii pulmonary disease in Kyushu, Japan
Initial treatment responses for MABC and M. kansasii were favourable. However, long-term outcomes for MABC remained poor, potentially owing to the limited availability of effective continuation-phase therapies. Further large-scale prospective studies are warranted to understand the clinical management and prognosis of non-MAI NTM-PD.
