A 43-year-old heroin addict with Candida albicans endophthalmitis was treated with a single 5-mug intravitreal injection of amphotericin B. The diagnosis was confirmed by smears and cultures of a vitrous aspiration. The patient's accidental death seven weeks after treatment enabled us to obtain histopathologic evidence that the infection had been cured and that the amphotericin B had had no toxic effect on the retina. Intravitral amphotericin B should be considered an important mode of treatment of Candida endophthalmitis.
一名43岁的海洛因成瘾者患白色念珠菌性眼内炎，接受了一次玻璃体内注射5微克两性霉素B的治疗。通过玻璃体抽吸物涂片和培养确诊。治疗7周后患者意外死亡，这使我们能够获得组织病理学证据，证明感染已治愈，且两性霉素B对视网膜没有毒性作用。玻璃体内注射两性霉素B应被视为治疗念珠菌性眼内炎的一种重要方式。
