Abstract
Small bodies resembling bacilli which stain with acid fast techniques are observed in the secretory cells of eccrine and apocrine sweat glands. The presence of these acid fast bodies is not well-known; they could be mistaken for an infection with acid fast bacilli.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
