Parvimonas micra Necrotizing Panophthalmitis Involving the Sclera, Cornea, Uvea, Retina, and Orbit.
Аннотация
We present an unusual case of a patient who acquired a pansinusitis and orbital cellulitis with necrotizing features, subsequently developing scleritis, keratitis, and anterior uveitis. To date, there are no reported cases of the simultaneous involvement of these ocular structures from a pansinusitis. Our patient was urgently taken to the operating room for drainage of the abscesses within his sinuses and the orbit. Intraoperative cultures were positive for Parvimonas micra, an odontogenic anaerobic bacteria. He was additionally found to have a central retinal artery occlusion. He was treated with systemic and topical antibiotics as well as topical dilute hypochlorous acid. The mechanisms of virulence of P. micra, including its synergistic relationship with other bacteria, ability to bind plasminogen, and its expression of proteases, contributed to this diffuse infection.
