摘要
We report a case of a 39-year-old HIV positive transgender female with isolated manifestations of pulmonary Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infection. Although MAC infection is common in immunocompromised patients, the classical presentation is extra-pulmonary. Pulmonary MAC infection is extremely rare. The majority of cases involve patients with underlying structural lung disease. There are no case reports of isolated pulmonary MAC in HIV/AIDS patients without any structural lung disease in the last 17 years. Also, we have not found any cases of newly diagnosed HIV/AIDS patients with pulmonary MAC being the initial presentation.
