A rare and challenging case of pulmonary mycobacterium genavense in an immunocompetent adult / Nur ‘Aini Eddy Warman and Nurul Yaqeen Mohd Esa.

Mycobacterium genavense, a non-tuberculous mycobacterium (NTM), usually affects patients severely immunodeficient from human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or any other immunocompromised states. We reported a case in a 70-year-old female with well-controlled diabetes and history of proximal...
