    Abstract:
    A 48-yr-old female on immunosuppressive therapy for fibrosing alveolitis and polymyositis developed a septic arthritis of the left middle finger proximal interphalangeal joint, tenosynovitis of the left palm and osteomyelitis of the right hindfoot due to infection with Mycobacterium marinum. Such widespread and severe bone and joint involvement has not been described previously with this organism.
