Abstract
CPA frequently developed in patients with MAC and M. kansasii PNTM. The treatment course of PNTM was not associated with all-cause mortality. However, systemic corticosteroid use and high CRP levels were negative prognostic factors of CPA in patients with PNTM. Since the prognosis is poor, early diagnosis and treatment of CPA are important in patients with PNTM.
