在免疫功能低下的人中，粘液分枝杆菌是引起中心静脉导管和伤口感染的一种罕见原因。这种微生物经常在饮用水中发现，对许多消毒剂有抗性。我们报告一位脐带血移植受者，在病人自己用自来水冲洗导管后，发生了中心静脉导管感染。通过移除中心静脉导管和给予抗菌治疗成功治疗了感染。
Mycobacterium mucogenicum is an unusual cause of central venous catheter and wound infections in immunocompromised persons. The organism is often found in drinking water and is resistant to many disinfectants. We report a cord blood transplant recipient who developed a central venous catheter infection after the patient herself had flushed her catheter with tap water. The infection was successfully treated by removal of the central venous catheter and administration of antimicrobial therapy.
