  • Title: Primary inoculation complex of skin by Mycobacterium chelonei.
    Author: Figueroa LD, González JR.
    Journal: J Am Acad Dermatol; 1984 Feb; 10(2 Pt 2):333-6. PubMed ID: 6707255.
    Abstract:
    We report a patient with a primary inoculation complex of the skin caused by Mycobacterium chelonei, a facultative pathogen that belongs to group IV of Runyon's classification of atypical mycobacteria. This organism is seldom responsible for disease in humans, although cutaneous, pulmonary, heart, bone, and disseminated infections have been reported. An unusual cutaneous manifestation of this organism is presented with a review of the literature.
