Core Tip

Core Tip: This case highlights the growing challenge of diagnosing and managing non-tuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) infections, with an emphasis on Mycobacterium gordoniasis in the cervical lymph node. This underscores the significance of employing sophisticated bacterial identification methods to differentiate NTM from tuberculosis, considering their nuanced clinical presentations and implications for treatment approaches. The report serves as a pivotal reminder of the diverse clinical outcomes linked to NTM infections, advocating for increased vigilance and personalized therapeutic interventions in analogous scenarios.
