Abstract
The article presents a case report of nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease. Nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease is frequently underdiagnosed due to the absence of clinical signs, a nonspecific X-ray picture, as well as the difficulties of using molecular genetic diagnostic tests in primary health care setting. Some patients especially those with underlying respiratory diseases, are at increased risk of developing nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease. Identification of patients at risk is essential to allow for prompt testing and diagnosis and appropriate management to prevent disease progression.
