It primarily causes disseminated cutaneous disease in immunocompromised individuals such as those on long term monoclonal antibodies, immunosuppressants, or corticosteroids(1). M. chelonae is a rare cause of chronic infection and its multidrug resistance has proven to be challenging to treat(3). In this case we report the clinical course of a woman with chronic soft tissue infection. For More Information: https://sma.org/abstracts/starting-fr...
