| Popis: |
Fungal keratitis by Phoma species is rare, and little information has been accumulated. We report a case of keratitis caused by Didymella gardeniae, formerly known as P. gardeniae. The patient had a history of stromal herpetic keratitis and had been treated with long-term topical betamethasone. He developed infectious keratitis in the left eye, with the causative fungus identified by ribosomal DNA sequencing. Combination treatment with topical voriconazole and miconazole proved effective. Keywords: Fungal keratitis, Didymella gardenia, Phoma, voriconazole, miconazole |
