TI  - Pulmonary mycobacterium Simiae infection and HTLV1 infection: an incidental 
      co-infection or a predisposing factor?
PG  - 106-9
AB  - There is little information on atypical mycobacterium and human T lymphotropic 
      virus Type I (HTLV-I) co-infection. We present the first case of pulmonary M. 
      simiae infection in co-infection with HTLV-1, confirmed by ELISA antibody test 
      and Western Blot. We discuss the clinical characteristics and laboratory tests of 
      the patient and presumptive immunological relation. We propose that in patients 
      with the HTLV infection and pulmonary symptoms and signs compatible with 
      tuberculosis, evaluation for atypical mycobacteriosis may be recommendable.
