Abstract
A rare occurrence of ocular subconjunctival dirofilariasis in a 53-year-old healthy Indian male working in Dubai, UAE presenting with an acute red eye is reported. Surgical excision under topical anesthesia was carried out uneventfully in the outpatient clinic. The live worm removed from the subconjunctival space was identified as Dirofilaria repens on the basis of microscopic examination and histopathology. Surgical excision of subconjunctival dirofilariasis is safe in an outpatient setting and curative precluding the need for further systemic antihelminthics.
摘要
据报道，一名在阿联酋迪拜工作的53岁健康印度男性出现急性红眼，罕见地发生了眼结膜下恶丝虫病。在门诊局部麻醉下顺利进行了手术切除。根据显微镜检查和组织病理学，从结膜下间隙取出的活虫被鉴定为匐行恶丝虫。结膜下恶丝虫病的手术切除在门诊环境中是安全的，且具有治愈性，无需进一步的全身抗蠕虫治疗。
