Endobronchial Non-Tuberculosis Mycobacterium Infection Presenting in a Healthy Child

Objectives: To describe a safe and effective treatment for endobronchial Mycobacterium avium complex.

Methods: Case report and literature review.

Results: We present a case of endobronchial M. avium complex in a healthy child treated with serial carbon-dioxide laser excisions and antibiotic triple therapy using azithromycin, rifampin, and ethambutol. No current guideline for the treatment of these lesions in the pediatric population exists.

Conclusions: In patients with airway impingement, serial endoscopic surgical resection combined with antibiotics can provide safe and effective management.
