Insects are a class of living creatures within the arthropods. Bite is a wound produced by the mouth parts of an insect. Although insect bite reactions are commonly seen in clinical practice, especially in dermatology clinics, injuries from insect bites are less commonly encountered in ophthalmology clinics. Herein, we report a 28-year-old male presenting with a rapidly growing mass on his right upper eyelid following a suspected insect bite.
昆虫是节肢动物门中的一类生物。叮咬是昆虫口器造成的伤口。尽管昆虫叮咬反应在临床实践中很常见,尤其是在皮肤科诊所,但眼科诊所较少遇到昆虫叮咬造成的损伤。在此,我们报告一名28岁男性,在疑似昆虫叮咬后右上眼睑出现迅速增大的肿物。
