To recognize the novel finding of a bacillary layer detachment (BALAD) secondary to endogenous fungal endophthalmitis. Chart review, literature review. BALAD is a recently described condition in which the photoreceptor layer splits at the level of the inner segment myoid. We describe a case of BALAD associated with endogenous fungal endophthalmitis and subsequent development of choroidal neovascularization, although it is unclear if BALAD contributed to neovessel formation. BALAD is generally seen in the setting of inflammatory or infectious retinal diseases. This is the first report of BALAD secondary to endogenous fungal endophthalmitis.
认识内源性真菌性眼内炎继发的杆菌层脱离(BALAD)这一新颖发现。病历回顾、文献回顾。BALAD是一种最近描述的病症,其中光感受器层在内段肌样水平处分裂。我们描述了一例与内源性真菌性眼内炎相关的BALAD病例以及随后脉络膜新生血管的形成,尽管尚不清楚BALAD是否促成了新血管形成。BALAD通常见于炎性或感染性视网膜疾病的背景下。这是内源性真菌性眼内炎继发BALAD的首例报告。
