Invasive Mycobacterium marinum infection of the hand.
(2013) In Journal of Plastic Surgery and Hand Surgery 47(6). p.532-534- Abstract
- Abstract Mycobacterium marinum infection of the hand is rare. We report the case of a 39-year-old man with M marinum infection that resulted in a chronic soft tissue infection, extensor tendon synovitis, and arthritis of the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints. The cause was probably tropical freshwater fishes.
