title: [Rapidly growing mycobacteria that cause mycobacteriosis in humans].
abstract: Rapidly growing mycobacteria of two species, i.e. M. fortuitum and M. chelonei caused in humans mycobacteriosis frequently similar in its manifestations to tuberculosis. The both mycobacterial species were resistant to the majority of antituberculous drugs and sensitive to amikacin, dioxycycline, sefmetazole and some sulfanilamides. It was shown that it was possible to identify the mycobacterial species with the routine tests and paper indicator systems.
