We report a 14-year-old girl who developed port-site infection with Mycobacterium chelonei following laparoscopic appendicectomy. She was treated with local exploration and excision of sinuses that developed at the site, followed by antibacterial agents for six months. She has had no recurrence of infection at two years.
