Abstract

Infections caused by Mycobacterium haemophilum in immunocompetent patients are unusual. M. haemophilum have been associated with cervicofacial lymphadenitis in children, but inguinal infections have not yet been described. We present a case of an inguinal lymphadenitis caused by M. haemophilum in an immunocompetent girl.
