title: [Mycobacterium kansasii lung infection].
abstract: The incidence of non tuberculosis mycobacterial (NTM) pulmonary diseases is increasing. Patients with NTM disease usually suffer prolonged periods of clinical illness prior to diagnosis. An etiological treatment, initiated by a well informed clinician and based on presumptive evidence, can be successful in a significant proportion of cases.
