AB  - INTRODUCTION: The growing incidence of post-surgical atypical mycobacteriosis 
      (PSAM) may be related to the increased use of low- and medium-complexity 
      video-assisted surgery. METHODS: Between April 2007 and June 2009, 125 patients 
      were referred from the State Health Department of Rio de Janeiro for the 
      treatment of confirmed, probable, or suspected PSAM. RESULTS: Laparoscopic 
      cholecystectomy was the most frequent surgical procedure (48.8%) among patients. 
      Clarithromycin, ethambutol, and terizidone were used to treat 113 patients for a 
      mean duration of 226 days. CONCLUSIONS: Despite the need for multidrug therapy 
      and long treatment duration, most included patients adhered to treatment and 
      experienced cure without relapse.
