Mycobacterium heraklionense is a newly described species member of the Mycobacterium terrae complex.
We have described a case of chronic tenosynovitis caused by M. heraklionense using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The infection was associated with trauma and foreign‐body introduction in an otherwise healthy patient.
M. heraklionense appears to have worldwide distribution and has the ability to cause disease similar to other members of the M. terrae complex.
