Abstract EN
Mycobacterium celatum, a slowly growing potentially pathogenic mycobacterium first described in humans, is regarded as an uncommon cause of human infection, though capable of inducing invasive disease in immunocompromised hosts.
According to some reports, a serious disease due to M.
celatum may also occur in individuals with no apparent immunodeficiency.
In animals, an M.
celatum-related disease has been described in three cases only: twice in a domestic ferret (Mustela putorius furo) and once in a white-tailed trogon (Trogon viridis).
In this paper, we report the first detection of M.
celatum in a domestic pig (Sus scrofa domestica) and roe deer (Capreolus capreolus).
A nation-wide overview of human M.
celatum infections recorded in Slovenia between 2000 and 2010 is also given.
Pulmonary disease due to M.
celatum was recognized in one patient with a history of a preexisting lung disease.
