  • Title: Mycobacterium marinum infection complicated by anti-tumour necrosis factor therapy.
    Author: Ramos JM, García-Sepulcre MF, Rodríguez JC, Padilla S, Gutiérrez F.
    Journal: J Med Microbiol; 2010 May; 59(Pt 5):617-621. PubMed ID: 20133411.
    Abstract:
    Mycobacteria other than tuberculosis infections in patients taking various tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha inhibitors have been reported in the literature. We describe sporotrichoid spread of Mycobacterium marinum in a man with Crohn's disease treated with infliximab. After starting ethambutol and rifampicin and discontinuing infliximab, a worsening appeared. M. marinum infection may have a potential local spread and systemic dissemination in patients treated with TNF-alpha inhibitors.
