Abstract

A 59-year-old woman with superficial punctate keratitis of Thygeson was observed for 14 years. The patient was treated intermittently with topical corticosteroids and artificial tears. Immediate symptomatic relief was followed by multiple recurrences and exacerbations. This case was atypical because of its prolonged clinical course and development of permanent, subepithelial corneal scarring, and elevated lesions resembling Salzmann's nodular degeneration.

摘要

一名患有蒂格森表浅点状角膜炎的59岁女性患者被观察了14年。该患者间断接受局部皮质类固醇和人工泪液治疗。症状虽能立即缓解，但随后多次复发和加重。此病例不典型，因其临床病程较长，出现了永久性的角膜上皮下瘢痕形成，以及类似萨尔茨曼结节状变性的隆起病变。
