Simultaneously disseminated coinfection with two species of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) is extremely rare and had been reported only in immunocompromised individuals. Here, we report a 59-year-old Thai man, previously healthy. He presented with a 2-month history of prolonged fever, constitutional symptoms, and hepatosplenomegaly. His chest and abdomen computed tomography illustrated multiple enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes accompanied with multifocal crazy-paving appearance in both lungs and hepatosplenomegaly. Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration was performed on the mediastinal nodes. The pathologic findings were necrotizing granulomatous lymphadenitis with numerous AFB-positive bacilli. Blood culture subsequently isolated M. intracellulare, while BAL and lymph node culture isolated M. intracellulare and M. kansasii, which confirmed species by multiplex PCR and 16s rRNA sequencing. Idiopathic CD4+ lymphocytopenia (ICL) was diagnosed as the cause of secondary immune deficiency. Intravenous imipenem, amikacin, and azithromycin were administered as an empirical antibiotic regimen for 4 weeks, then substituted to oral rifampicin, clarithromycin, moxifloxacin, and ethambutol as definitive regimen. Unfortunately, it was found that he had died unexpectedly at home after 4 months of treatment, possibly related to this illness. In our view, patients with severe disseminated NTM disease should be evaluated to explore a secondary immune deficiency disorder. An ICL is a rare heterogenous syndrome but should be considered.
