الملخص EN
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are opportunistic pathogens that are widely distributed in the environment.
There is a lack of data on species distribution of these organisms from Iran.
This study consists of a review of NTM articles published in Iran between the years 1992 and 2014.
In this review, 20 articles and 14 case reports were identified.
Among the 20 articles, 13 (65%) studies focused on NTM isolates from clinical specimens, 6 (30%) studies examined NTM isolates from environmental samples, and one (5%) article included both clinical and environmental isolates.
M.
fortuitum (229/997; 23%) was recorded as the most prevalent and rapid growing mycobacteria (RGM) species in both clinical (28%) and environmental (19%) isolated samples (P < 0.05).
Among slow growing mycobacteria (SGM), M.
simiae (103/494; 21%) demonstrated a higher frequency in clinical samples whereas in environmental samples it was M.
flavescens (44/503; 9%).
These data represent information from 14 provinces out of 31 provinces of Iran.
No information is available in current published data on clinical or environmental NTM from the remaining 17 provinces in Iran.
These results emphasize the potential importance of NTM as well as the underestimation of NTM frequency in Iran.
NTM is an important clinical problem associated with significant morbidity and mortality in Iran.
Continued research is needed from both clinical and environmental sources to help clinicians and researchers better understand and address NTM treatment and prevention.
