Resumo: Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) is frequently isolated from patients with late complications of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), especially in North America and Europe. However, its isolation from the central nervous system (CNS) has been seldom reported in these countries. MAC infections in AIDS patients in African and Latin American countries are believed to be uncommon. We report the isolation of MAC from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of 11 AIDS patients out of 1723 (0.63%) seen at Centro de Referência e Treinamento - AIDS, São Paulo and discuss the significance of its isolation.

Entretanto, existem poucos relatos do isolamento deste complexo a partir do sistema nervoso central (SNC) nestes países. Acredita-se que infecções pelo CMA sejam raras entre pacientes portadores de AIDS em países da África e América Latina. Neste trabalho relatamos o isolamento do CMA do líquor de 11 pacientes portadores de AIDS dentre 1723 (0.63%) atendidos no Centro de Referência e Treinamento -AIDS, de São Paulo, e discutimos a significância deste achado.Escola Paulista de Medicina Centro de Referência e Treinamento AIDSInstituto Adolfo LutzEscola Paulista de MedicinaUNIFESP, EPM, Centro de Referência e Treinamento AIDSEscola Paulista de MedicinaSciELOInstituto de Medicina TropicalUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Instituto Adolfo LutzHadad, David Jamil [UNIFESP]Petry, Tereza CristinaMaresca, Anaenza FreieFerrazoli, LucilaineMartins, Maria ConceiçãoPalhares, Maria Cecilia De AlmeidaPinto, Walkyria PereiraCastelo Filho, Adauto [UNIFESP]Palaci, Moises2015-06-14T13:24:28Z2015-06-14T13:24:28Z1995-04-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion93-98application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0036-46651995000200001Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo.
