Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are ubiquitous, located in the water supply and soil. Our objective was to review the literature to characterize NTM infection following ACL reconstruction.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A database search was performed for arthroscopic ACL reconstructions that resulted in a postoperative diagnosis of NTM infection.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The literature search returned 6 case reports that met the inclusion criteria. The initial postoperative presentation occurred after 3 to 52 weeks, which is consistent with reports of postoperative NTM infection.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The common indolent course of NTM infection hinders prompt diagnosis and treatment. Organism susceptibility testing is crucial for effective treatment and limiting unnecessary antibiotic exposure.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical Relevance:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The duration of medical treatment for NTM infection is 4 to 6 months, depending on the severity of disease and species. Based on the aggregate literature, we recommend removal of local implants if the infection is localized and without articular involvement. However, in cases of articular involvement, all fixation and graft material should be removed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.2106\/jbjs.oa.23.00030","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,27]],"date-time":"2023-04-27T14:22:47Z","timestamp":1682605367000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A Systematic Review of Nontuberculous Mycobacterium Infection Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction"],"prefix":"10.2106","volume":"8","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6034-6677","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"John J.","family":"Heifner","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Miami Orthopaedic Research Foundation, Coral Gables, Florida"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mitchell L.","family":"Hunter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Larkin Hospital, Coral Gables, Florida"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arturo","family":"Corces","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Larkin Hospital, Coral Gables, Florida"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jan Pieter","family":"Hommen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Larkin Hospital, Coral Gables, Florida"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,4]]},"reference":[{"issue":"11","key":"R1-20240801","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1370","DOI":"10.5588\/ijtld.14.0120","article-title":"The epidemiologic relationship between tuberculosis and non-tuberculous mycobacterial disease: a systematic review","volume":"18","author":"Brode","year":"2014 Nov","journal-title":"Int J Tuberc Lung Dis"},{"issue":"4","key":"R2-20240801","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"367","DOI":"10.1164\/rccm.200604-571ST","article-title":"ATS Mycobacterial Diseases Subcommittee; American Thoracic Society; Infectious Disease Society of America.
