Since we first described Mycobacterium heckeshornense, a rare species of mycobacteria in 2000, only 21 cases of infection with this mycobacterium have been described in humans. We relate the diagnosis and therapy of another case of this uncommon nontuberculous mycobacterium in an immune-suppressed patient.
