PURPOSE
We describe a case of severe scleritis possibly caused by .
OBSERVATIONS
Conventional laboratory evaluation was inconclusive. The associated organism was identified with metagenomic RNA deep sequencing (MDS). The infection resolved with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole treatment.
CONCLUSIONS
This case demonstrates the utility of unbiased, high-throughput sequencing for infectious scleritis.
目的
我们描述了一例可能由……引起的严重巩膜炎病例。
观察结果
传统实验室评估结果不明确。通过宏基因组RNA深度测序（MDS）鉴定出相关病原体。经甲氧苄啶-磺胺甲恶唑治疗后感染得到缓解。
结论
该病例证明了无偏倚的高通量测序在感染性巩膜炎中的应用价值。
