Genitourinary infections caused by mycobacteria other than Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections are usually found in the respiratory tract: infection confined to the genito-urinary system is rare. We report two patients with isolated genito-urinary infections, one due to Mycobacterium chelonae and the other to Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare.
