Keratitis and endophthalmitis caused by Petriellidium boydii.

I D Elliott, C Halde, J Shapiro.   

Abstract

A 26-year-old man sustained burns of the left eye and eyelids from molten aluminum. Antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory therapy was instituted. Cultures of conjunctival material collected 14 days after the burn grew abundant colonies of Petriellidium boydii. Because of severe pain and impending corneal perforation, the eye was enucleated.
