Abstract: Abstract A 77-year-old Japanese man with disseminated Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) disease due to anti-interferon-gamma autoantibodies received rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone (R-CHOP) chemotherapy because of non-Hodgkin lymphoma complication. The hepatobiliary nodules due to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000008118
Abstract: Rationale: Among the nontuberculous mycobacteria, Mycobacterium abscessus is a common cause of skin, soft tissue, and bone infections. However, disseminated M. abscessus infection that mimics cancer metastasis with an underlying relatively immunocompetent condition has rarely… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/0300060520976471
Abstract: Patients with anti-interferon (IFN)-γ autoantibodies have weakened immune defenses against intracellular pathogens. Because of its low incidence and non-specific symptoms, diagnosis of anti-IFN-γ autoantibody syndrome is difficult to establish during the early stages of infection.… read more here.

DOI: 10.2147/idr.s312042
Abstract: Abstract A high titer of neutralizing anti-interferon-γ autoantibodies can cause immunodeficiency associated with severe or disseminated infections caused by Talaromyces marneffei in human immunodeficiency virus-negative patients. Herein, we reported a rare case of disseminated Talaromyces… read more here.
