Abstract
Nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) diseases are difficult-to-treat infections, especially in lung transplant (LTx) candidates. Currently, there is a paucity of recommendations on the management of NTM infections in LTx, focusing on Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), M. abscessus and M. kansasii.
