Abstract

The epidemiology of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) is not well known. In this study, we aimed to determine the incidence of NTM isolates and nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease (NTM-PD) in five closely located hospitals in an area of northern Spain and analyse differences between them.
