Abstract

Two long term hospitalized patients developed disseminated infections caused byMycobacterium chelonae,subspecies chelonae, over an eight-month period. In both cases, the disease was characterized by cutaneous and osseous involvement. The infections were indolent and marked by progressive bony destruction. These cases and a review of the literature are presented.
