We detailed a case of refractory surgical site infection (SSI) caused by M. wolinskyi. The causative pathogen was identified by metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) analysis, 16S rRNA and rpoB gene sequencing. What renders this case particularly remarkable is the complexity introduced by a series of antibiotic-induced adverse effects, which seem to be deeply intertwined with the patient’s underlying metabolic syndrome. With the meticulous pharmaceutical guidance provided by the clinical pharmacist, the patient experienced a substantial improvement in his knee joint infection.Keywords: Mycobacterium wolinskyi, surgical site infection, metabolic syndrome, mNGS
