Successful Treatment with a High-dose Rifampin-containing Regimen for Pulmonary Tuberculosis with a Disputed rpoB Mutation
Mutations in the rpoB gene of Mycobacterium tuberculosis can result in resistance to rifampin. Among various mutations in the rpoB gene, some known as disputed rpoB mutations can cause low-level rifampin resistance. It has been suggested that a high-dose rifampin (20 mg/kg)-based regimen might be ef...
