Abstract

ABSTRACT Acid-fast bacilli from pediatric patients with lymphadenopathy were detected in the BACTEC radiometric system and in MB Redox broth, but not on Löwenstein Jensen medium. PCR amplification identified the isolates as Mycobacterium haemophilum , which has special nutrition requirements (iron supplements) for growth. Suitable culture medium ensures optimal recovery of this microorganism, avoiding underdiagnosis.
