==Overview==
Skin, soft tissue, and bone infection with ''Mycobacterium abscessus'' (''M. abscessus'') has been associated with penetrating injuries, open [[wound]]s, intramuscular injections, and inappropriate disinfection of medical devices. Some of the risk factors for respiratory ''M. abscessus'' infection are chronic lung diseases such as [[cystic fibrosis]] and previous untreated [[mycobacterium|mycobacterial]] infection.

Overview

Skin, soft tissue, and bone infection with Mycobacterium abscessus (M. abscessus) has been associated with penetrating injuries, open wounds, intramuscular injections, and inappropriate disinfection of medical devices. Some of the risk factors for respiratory M. abscessus infection are chronic lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis and previous untreated mycobacterial infection.

Risk Factors

Skin and Soft Tissue Infection

  • Open wounds
  • Penetrating injury
  • Surgical tourism[1]
  • Laparoscopic surgery[1]
  • Cosmetic surgery[2]
  • Intramuscular injections[3][4][5][6]
    • Inappropriate skin disinfection
    • Inappropriate sterilization of the equipment[7]
    • Contaminated solutions
  • Contaminated municipal or water supply[8][9]
  • Acupuncture (contaminated solution used to clean the physical therapy device)[10]
  • Dialysis[11][12]
  • Bronchoscopy[8]
    • Inadequate desinfection of the bronchoscope
    • Contaminated local anesthesia solution
    • Contaminated tap water
    • Contaminated antimicrobial solution
  • Wading and public pool exposure (hand-and-foot disease)[13][14]

Bronchopulmonary Infection

Disseminated Infection

  • Non AIDS-related immune suppression[19][20]
