Summary

Prevalence of NTM diseases has been increasing regularly over the past 30 years in industrialized countries Although NTM are identified worldwide, there are important geographical disparities as to the relative prevalence of NTM species There are no data covering the ecology of NTM in Switzerland. Because of the progressive increase in NTM clinical cases in area Geneva(as noted in other industrialized countries), reporting the specific NTM distribution is important and relevant. In this study, the investigators aimed to: 1/ describe the relative prevalence of NTM species in clinical samples analyzed in the Geneva area, covering ca 500'000 inhabitants over a 5-year period; 2/ determine how many culture positive patients were treated; and 3/ specify the clinical sites involved.
