A retrospective case report on the management of a 56-year-old man who was diagnosed with Fusarium keratitis with an associated iris fungal nodule. He presented with persistent right ocular pain, redness, photophobia and reduced vision following an injury six weeks earlier. Conservative management with topical antibiotics and intracameral injections was successfully used to treat a rare case of Fusarium keratitis with an associated fungal iris nodule. The patient had complete resolution of his vision. Therefore, conservative management of the fungal nodule is a successful therapy without the risk of anterior chamber dissemination, which may occur with surgical resection.
一份关于一名56岁男性患者的回顾性病例报告,该患者被诊断为镰刀菌性角膜炎并伴有虹膜真菌结节。他在六周前受伤后出现持续的右眼疼痛、发红、畏光及视力下降。局部使用抗生素及前房注射的保守治疗成功用于治疗一例罕见的伴有真菌性虹膜结节的镰刀菌性角膜炎。患者视力完全恢复。因此,对真菌结节的保守治疗是一种成功的疗法,没有手术切除可能导致的前房播散风险。
