The aim of this report is to present a previously unreported causative organism associated with brown-pigmented hypopyon in a patient with endophthalmitis.
This is a retrospective case report which includes clinicopathologic correlations.
Vitreous cultures demonstrated Streptococcus bovis infection resulting in a brown-pigmented hypopyon, with uveal pigment found intra- and extracellularly on pathologic examination of the pupillary membrane.
S. bovis endophthalmitis may be a cause of dark hypopyon, especially in patients with a history of liver disease, and, when identified, warrants colonoscopy and cardiac workup.
本报告旨在介绍一例眼内炎患者中与棕色色素沉着前房积脓相关的此前未报道的病原体。
这是一篇包括临床病理相关性的回顾性病例报告。
玻璃体培养显示牛链球菌感染导致棕色色素沉着前房积脓，在瞳孔膜病理检查中发现葡萄膜色素存在于细胞内和细胞外。
牛链球菌性眼内炎可能是深色前房积脓的一个原因，尤其是在有肝病病史的患者中，一旦确诊，需要进行结肠镜检查和心脏检查。
