RESUMO
Here, we reported the diagnosis and treatment of a case of HIV infected person complicated by an extremely rare infection with Mycobacterium celatum. Due to the similarity of homologous sequence regions between Mycobacterium celatum and Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, the identification of conventional Mycobacterium species was incorrect, which was corrected after first-generation 16S rRNA sequencing. This report aimed to improve the clinical understanding of Mycobacterium celatum infection and the level of differential diagnosis between non-tuberculous mycobacterial disease and tuberculosis.
