[Atypical mycobacteriosis caused by Mycobacterium marinum]
Abstract
Granulomatous lesions located on the hand and on the right forearm have been described in a 67-year-old housewife. They appeared after a small lesion caused by a fish bone, from a piece of frozen fish. Clinical aspect and history together with histological examination are typical of an infection by Mycobacterium marinum.
