ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

Mycobacterium avium complex pulmonary disease (MAC-PD) is occasionally complicated by interstitial lung disease (ILD) in clinical practice, but clinical studies are limited. This study aims to elucidate the clinical and imaging characteristics of MAC-PD in patients with ILD.

METHODS:

We retrospectively analyzed imaging and clinical data from medical records of 54 consecutive ILD patients diagnosed with MAC-PD from 2011 to 2021 at our institution. We compared the imaging and clinical data of these patients with 2218 ILD patients diagnosed at our institution.

RESULTS:

The mean age of the patients was 74 years, with 25 males and 29 females, and a mean body mass index (BMI) of 20.0 kg/m2. Compared to all ILD patients, ILD-associated MAC-PD had older ages, lower BMI. The most common underlying ILD diagnosis was unclassifiable interstitial pneumonia. MAC-PD imaging classification was nodular-bronchiectatic (NB) type in 17 patients, fibro-cavitary (FC) type in 15 patients, and unclassifiable (UC) type in 22 patients. Many UC types were difficult to diagnose due to the absence of clear findings indicative of MAC infection. Chronic pulmonary aspergillosis complication was 24.1 %. The mean survival of ILD-associated MAC-PD was 55.6 months, shorter than that of regular MAC-PD. The UC type had a shorter survival than the NB type, similar to the FC type.

CONCLUSION:

MAC-PD associated with ILD frequently complicates chronic pulmonary aspergillosis and has a poor prognosis. The most common imaging type, UC type, particularly has a shorter survival. Careful management is essential for MAC-PD associated with ILD.
