  • Endogenous Candida Endophthalmitis as a Rare Complication of Trans-Urethral Lithotripsy in a Healthy Woman: A Case Report
    Turkish journal of ophthalmology, 2019
    Co-Authors: Mohammad Shirvani, Shahla Hosseini, Mehrnoosh Maalhagh, Sahar Mohaghegh
    Abstract:

    Endogenous Endophthalmitis is a serious sight-threatening ocular emergency that usually occurs in patients with serious underlying risk factors. In this report, we describe a case of endogenous Candida Endophthalmitis following trans-urethral lithotripsy in an immunocompetent woman. In our case, the retinal lesion regressed completely and vision was restored. We discuss diagnostic procedures and management strategies in this article.

  • Unilateral endogenous Candida Endophthalmitis after extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy for a renal stone in an immunocompetent woman: a case report.
    Journal of ophthalmic inflammation and infection, 2019
    Co-Authors: Mohammad Shirvani, Shahla Hosseini, Merhrnoosh Maalhagh, Mehrdad Afarid, Ali Mirza-khanlooi, Sahar Mohaghegh
    Abstract:

    To report a case of endogenous Candida Endophthalmitis that may cause catastrophic sight-threatening outcomes, after extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) in a healthy woman. A 32-year-old woman presented to the ophthalmology clinic with the symptom of blurred vision and floater in her right eye. She underwent ESWL for renal stone 1 week prior to her presentation. Fundus examination showed an elevated white lesion in para-fovea with fluffy border. Smear of diagnostic vitreous sampling showed pseudo-hypha and budding yeast. Systemic and immunologic and infectious workups were unremarkable. In our case, response to intravitreal and intravenous injection of amphotericin-B and oral fluconazole was dramatic. Six weeks after starting the treatment, infiltrative lesion completely disappeared. The authors review previous MEDLINE literature about this topic. Endogenous Candida Endophthalmitis following renal stone lithotripsy is a serious and rare intraocular infection that may happen in healthy individuals without any risk factors.

  • Postpartum endogenous Candida Endophthalmitis
    Journal of the Formosan Medical Association = Taiwan yi zhi, 2002
    Co-Authors: Chia Chen Tsai, Shih-jen Chen, Yu-mei Chung, Wen-ming Hsu
    Abstract:

    Candida albicans is the most common pathogen causing intraocular fungal infection. Postpartum endogenous Candida Endophthalmitis, however, is extremely rare. We report the case of a 33-year-old postpartum woman who presented with a 5-day history of decreased vision and had a positive blood culture for C. albicans. Fundus examination showed vitreous haze and multiple pre-retinal whitish lesions with indistinct borders. Systemic investigations revealed acute renal failure and cardiomegaly. After treatment with intravenous antifungal therapy, vitrectomy, and intravitreal injection of antimycotics, systemic and intraocular infections were eradicated successfully.
