M. mucogenicum should be considered as a potential etiology of bacteremia in the setting of an inserted catheter, even in immunocompetent hosts. M. mucogenicum is one of the most common causes of rapidly growing mycobacterium bloodstream infection in patients with catheters in place. Catheter removal is critical in the management of patients with M. mucogenicum bacteremia since mycobacteria is notorious for biofilm formation. M. mucogenicum is naturally resistant to anti-tuberculous drugs. M. mucogenicum is susceptible to numerous antibiotics, making early recognition and diagnosis important to tailor appropriate therapy. Rapidly growing mycobacterium (RGM) bloodstream infections (BSI) have been described in the literature mostly in immunocompromised patients such as those with malignancies. Here, we describe a case of a RGM, Mycobacterium mucogenicum, bloodstream infection in an immunocompetent host who was receiving antibiotics via a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC).
