Abstract: Abstract: The optimal treatment of rapidly growing mycobacterial disseminated infections remains poorly established. Combined medical and surgical therapy seems to produce great results, but the increased risk of complications due to multiorganic resections keeps the correct treatment a matter of controversy. The aim of this paper is to report a case of disseminated mycobacterial infection treated with radical surgery plus antibiotic therapy and to discuss the role of surgery in this setting.
