Abstract

PURPOSE/METHODS: Eight years after eight-incision radial keratotomy, a corneal ulcer developed around the inferotemporal incision in an otherwise healthy 39-year-old man. There was no history of corneal trauma or contact lens wear.

RESULTS/CONCLUSIONS: Both Fusarium and Acanthamoeba organisms were eventually isolated from the ulcer. A therapeutic keratoplasty was performed. Inferotemporal incisions may be predisposed to epithelial breakdown and infection many years after radial keratotomy.

摘要

目的/方法：在一名39岁身体健康的男子接受八切口放射状角膜切开术8年后，其颞下切口周围出现了角膜溃疡。该男子无角膜外伤史或佩戴隐形眼镜史。

结果/结论：最终从溃疡中分离出镰刀菌和棘阿米巴原虫。实施了治疗性角膜移植术。放射状角膜切开术后多年，颞下切口可能易发生上皮破损和感染。
