Mycobacterium avium subsp hominissuis Infection in a Pet Parrot

Original language description

M. avium subsp. hominissuis (MAH) is not considered an avian pathogen and rarely has been isolated from tuberculous lesions. However, this case study reports the isolation of MAH from multiple organs of female blue-fronted Amazon parrot (Amazona aestiva;pet bird; ?6 months of age) that had developmental anomaly and liver fibrosis. In addition to a few nonspecific gross lesions, nontuberculous lesions were observed in the liver, spleen, and intestinal organs. Acid-fast rods were microscopically detectedin the liver and intestine. Cultivation grew six acid-fast rod-positive isolates from nine examined tissue specimens. A PCR assay confirmed M. avium spp., and a subsequent PCR assay for M. avium differentiation indicated MAH (IS1245+ and IS901-). The MAH isolate was classified as serotype 9. IS1245 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis showed two different multibanded IS1245 RFLP types, which varied in only one band position.
