Intravitreal triamcinolone is administered for a wide number of vitreoretinal conditions. Several complications including cataract formation, raised intraocular pressure, and endophthalmitis have been reported following intravitreal injections. We report a rare case wherein triamcinolone was inadvertently injected directly into the crystalline lens. A 41-year-old male presented to us with a history of intravitreal injection of triamcinolone in the left eye 2 weeks earlier. Slit lamp examination revealed a needle tract in the crystalline lens with steroid granules dispersed throughout the lens core. Such a complication is extremely rare with only three cases reported previously.
玻璃体内注射曲安奈德可用于多种玻璃体视网膜疾病。玻璃体内注射后，已有数种并发症被报道，包括白内障形成、眼压升高和眼内炎。我们报告一例罕见病例，曲安奈德被意外直接注射入晶状体。一名41岁男性2周前左眼接受了玻璃体内曲安奈德注射，随后前来就诊。裂隙灯检查发现晶状体有针道，类固醇颗粒散布于整个晶状体核。这种并发症极为罕见，此前仅报道过3例。
