Abstract

The nontuberculosis mycobacteria are often naturally resistant to the conventional antibiotics and to antituberculosis drugs (1–3). In addition, providing advice for the treatment of nontuberculosis is complicated by the variable and changing designations of these organisms, the heterogeneity of the clinical syndromes and patients, and the relative lack of controlled clinical trials (1,2). This chapter discusses the management of these difficult infections.
