摘要
An 88-year-old man underwent uneventful phacoemulsification and aspiration with an implantation of a preloaded acrylic intraocular lens. Six months later, he developed endophthalmitis with negative aqueous cultures, and the inflammation was refractory to conventional antibacterial therapies. He was treated successfully with vitrectomy and removal of the IOL and the entire lens capsule. A combination of intravitreal voriconazole and systemic micafungin were prescribed, and the inflammation was resolved. As best we know, this is the first case of Aspergillus tubingenesis endophthalmitis that followed the implantation of a preloaded intraocular lens.
