We examined an 82-year-old woman with delayed-onset endophthalmitis caused by an opportunistic pathogen, Ovadendron sulphureo-ochraceum.
Tissue obtained during vitrectomy was cultured and examined by light and electron microscopy. An enucleation specimen was examined by light microscopy.
The patient had fungal endophthalmitis, with O. sulphureo-ochraceum present in the lens capsule. The eye developed a necrotizing scleritis secondary to O. sulphureo-ochraceum. The patient failed to respond to intravitreous, subconjunctival, and systemic amphotericin B, and the eye was enucleated.
In this case of O. sulphureo-ochraceum as a human pathogen, the organism caused endophthalmitis after cataract extraction.
我们检查了一名82岁女性,她患有由机会致病菌硫磺赭色卵孢霉引起的迟发性眼内炎。
对玻璃体切除术中获取的组织进行培养,并通过光学显微镜和电子显微镜检查。对眼球摘除标本进行光学显微镜检查。
该患者患有真菌性眼内炎,晶状体囊膜中有硫磺赭色卵孢霉。眼睛继发硫磺赭色卵孢霉感染后出现坏死性巩膜炎。患者对玻璃体内、结膜下及全身应用两性霉素B均无反应,最终眼球被摘除。
在本例硫磺赭色卵孢霉作为人类病原体的病例中,该菌在白内障摘除术后引起了眼内炎。
