Abstract
We report on two toddlers suffering from Mycobacterium bohemicum lymphadenitis. Acid-fast bacilli were cultured from submandibular lymph nodes and identified by molecular methods as Mycobacterium bohemicum. Surgical treatment was successful and complemented by oral treatment with clarithromycin and rifampicin.
