This study aims to review the clinical significance of\n            <jats:italic>M. asiaticum<\/jats:italic>\n            isolates in Queensland, Australia. A retrospective review (1989 to 2008) of patients with\n            <jats:italic>M. asiaticum<\/jats:italic>\n            isolates was conducted. Data were collected through the Queensland TB Control Centre database. Disease was defined in accordance with the American Thoracic Society criteria. Twenty-four patients (13 female) had a positive culture of\n            <jats:italic>M. asiaticum<\/jats:italic>\n            , many residing around the Tropic of Capricorn.\n            <jats:italic>M. asiaticum<\/jats:italic>\n            was responsible for pulmonary disease (\n            <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n            = 2), childhood lymphadenitis (\n            <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n            = 1), olecranon bursitis (\n            <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n            = 1), 6 cases of possible pulmonary disease, and 2 possible wound infections. Chronic lung disease was a risk factor for pulmonary infection, and wounds\/lacerations were a risk factor for extrapulmonary disease. Extrapulmonary disease responded to local measures. Pulmonary disease responded to ethambutol-isoniazid-rifampin plus pyrazinamide for the first 2 months in one patient, and amikacin-azithromycin-minocycline in another patient. While\n            <jats:italic>M. asiaticum<\/jats:italic>\n            is rare in Queensland, there appears to be an environmental niche. Although often a colonizer, it can be a cause of pulmonary and extrapulmonary disease. Treatment of pulmonary disease remains challenging. Extrapulmonary disease does not mandate specific nontuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) treatment.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1128\/jcm.01602-09","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,10,29]],"date-time":"2009-10-29T01:24:16Z","timestamp":1256779456000},"page":"162-167","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1128\/asmj-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Clinical Significance of\n            <i>Mycobacterium asiaticum<\/i>\n            Isolates in Queensland, Australia"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"48","author":[{"given":"Miriam","family":"Grech","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Thoracic Medicine, The Prince Charles Hospital Brisbane, Brisbane, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Robyn","family":"Carter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"QLD Mycobacterial Reference Laboratory, Pathology Queensland, Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital campus, Brisbane, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rachel","family":"Thomson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Thoracic Medicine, The Prince Charles Hospital Brisbane, Brisbane, Australia"},{"name":"Queensland Tuberculosis Control Centre (QTBCC), Brisbane, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"235","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_1_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.rmed.2008.06.005"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1099\/jmm.0.46795-0"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMra012519"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_5_2","first-page":"283","volume":"11","year":"1979","unstructured":"Blacklock, Z.
