Аннотация
BACKGROUND: A case of Scedosporium prolificans corneoscleritis is reported in a patient who had developed scleral necrosis following pterygium surgery, with adjunctive beta-irradiation. This fungus has been reported to be the causative organism in only two previous cases of corneoscleritis.
METHODS: The patient presented with signs and symptoms typical of corneoscleritis. When the fungus was isolated from a biopsy specimen, aggressive scleral debridement was carried out and intensive antifungal therapy was instigated.
RESULTS: After a prolonged course, the eye was rendered sterile.
CONCLUSION: Early conjunctival recession and aggressive scleral debridement combined with intensive instillation of antifungals are crucial to the successful management of fungal corneoscleritis.
