Tick infestation of the eyelid is a rare but serious condition that can lead to Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever. In this report, we describe two cases who presented with tick infestation of the eyelid. Neither patient developed systemic disease or adverse sequelae after tick extraction. Complete mechanical removal of ticks located on the eyelid with blunt forceps is a safe and effective treatment method.
眼睑蜱虫寄生是一种罕见但严重的病症,可导致克里米亚-刚果出血热。在本报告中,我们描述了两例眼睑蜱虫寄生的病例。蜱虫拔除后,两名患者均未出现全身性疾病或不良后遗症。用钝头镊子完全机械去除眼睑上的蜱虫是一种安全有效的治疗方法。
