To demonstrate the presence of an active herpetic dendrite in an eye-bank cornea.
One eye-bank cornea was studied. Viral cultures and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing were performed 4 days after tissue preservation. The presence or absence of herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 was investigated.
The presence of an active HSV dendrite in an eye-bank cornea was verified. HSV type 1 was confirmed using PCR amplification and restriction endonuclease DNA fragment analysis.
This case suggests that HSV may remain viable in stored corneal tissue at 4 degrees C.
证明眼库角膜中存在活动性疱疹性树枝状病变。
对一只眼库角膜进行了研究。组织保存4天后进行了病毒培养和聚合酶链反应(PCR)检测。调查了1型单纯疱疹病毒(HSV)的有无。
证实眼库角膜中存在活动性HSV树枝状病变。通过PCR扩增和限制性内切酶DNA片段分析确认了1型HSV。
该病例表明HSV在4℃保存的角膜组织中可能保持存活。
