Preseptal cellulitis caused by Mycobacterium intracellulare.

Abstract:

:A case of preseptal cellulitis caused by Mycobacterium intracellulare is presented. A 56-year-old white woman developed erythema, induration, and tenderness of the lids of her right eye after chalazion removal, which did not respond to three weeks of broad spectrum antibiotics. Incision and drainage with biopsy revealed granuloma, and acid-fast bacilli were seem. Mycobacterium intracellulare was isolated on culture, resistant to all the antimicrobials that the patient was given. Antimicrobial therapy was discontinued, and the infection resolved over 15 months.
