We report a case of an agricultural worker presenting with corneal infiltrate following ocular injury with a rice husk. On examination, a superficial corneal foreign body was removed and sent for culture, which grew Pantoea ananatis. This is, to our knowledge, the first clinical case report of Pantoea ananatis causing corneal infiltrate.
我们报告了一例农业工人眼部被稻壳划伤后出现角膜浸润的病例。检查时,已清除浅层角膜异物并送检培养,结果为潘多拉菌属(Pantoea ananatis)。据我们所知,这是首例由潘多拉菌属引起角膜浸润的临床病例报告。
