Abstract
A young adult Caucasian man with fever and pancytopenia but without parenchymal pulmonary lesions had disseminated Mycobacterium kansasii infection, proved by sputum cultures, scalene lymph node and bone marrow biopsies and cultures. Unlike the fatal termination in other reported cases of this disease, our patient responded completely to isoniazid, para-aminosalicylic acid, streptomycin and ethambutol therapy, despite in vitro resistance to three of the antibiotics used.
