Abstract

Disseminated nontuberculous mycobacterial infections are most common in patients with severe immunosuppression, such as people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and low CD4+ T-cell counts. In this report, we present a rare case of a person with HIV who was hospitalized for mycobacteremia due to 2 different nontuberculous mycobacteria. We also provide a comprehensive summary of published case reports describing nontuberculous mycobacterial coinfections.
