ABSTRACT
Background: Tuberculosis is a global public health
problem, especially in emerging countries.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the main cause of
cervical lymphadenopathy; nontuberculous mycobacteria
are relatively common in children and rare in adults.
Objective: To identify and establish the frequency of
infectious etiology by nontuberculous mycobacteria in
Mexican adult patients with cervical lymphadenopathy.
Methods: The study included 85 patients over 18 years
with cervical lymphadenopathy; 45 were HIV-positive, 40
were HIV-negative; they had no history of tuberculosis
treatment and were selected from a third-level hospital. It
was carried out a biopsy of the lymph node for the
histopathological study, a search for acid-fast bacilli, a
tube culture to indicate growth of
Mycobacterium BACTEC
(MGIT-960) and identification of mycobacterial strain by
PCR-RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorfism) of
hsp65.
Results: In 42 HIV-positive patients (93%), strains
corresponded to
Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex,
two (4.4%) to
M. intracellulare and one (2.2%) to
M.
gordonae. Among HIV-negative patients, 39 of strains
(97.5%) corresponded to patients with
M. tuberculosis
complex and one strain (2.5%) to
M. fortuitum.
Conclusion: The presence of nontuberculous
mycobacteria was found in 4.7% of all cases. Despite
this low frequency, it must be taken into account as a
possible cause of lymphadenopathy, since its prompt
identification enables introducing specific treatment.
