case report- submandibular LN excised in 2 yo girl, Swiss/Indian, culture = M. tuberculosis. "Prolonged cervical lymph node swelling is a frequent pediatric problem. Among infectious agents the members of the genus Mycobacterium are well-established causes of granulomatous lymphadenitis in immunocompetent children."..."With the decreasing incidence of tuberculosis in industrial countries during the 20th century, infections caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria became more prevalent and now account for most such cases. Mycobacterium avium complex, Mycobacterium scrofulaceum, Mycobacterium kansasii and Mycobacterium fortuitum are well-known causes of lymphadenitis in children with the typical histologic findings of granulomatous lymphadenitis."...Antimicrobial susceptibility testing by broth microdilution method with Middlebrook 7H9 medium incubated at 35°C in ambient air showed the following MICs (milligrams/l): amikacin 4.0; clarithromycin <0.06; rifabutin <0.007; rifampin <0.015; ethambutol 4.0; and levofloxacin 0.25.
