Exogenous reinfection with multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis in an immunocompetent patient TUBERCLE AND LUNG DISEASE Shafer, R. W., Singh, S. P., Larkin, C., Small, P. M. 1995; 76 (6): 575-577

Abstract

We used restriction-fragment-length-polymorphism (RFLP) DNA fingerprinting to document exogenous reinfection with a multidrug-resistant strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in an immunocompetent patient. Molecular epidemiologic studies using RFLP analysis may elucidate the epidemiology of exogenous reinfection with M. tuberculosis.
