Pythium insidiosum keratitis.

D Murdoch1, D Parr.   

Abstract

A case of Pythium insidiosum keratitis is described. It is an unusual organism that is difficult to isolate. Cases in animals and humans have been reported from tropical and subtropical parts of the world but this is the first case from a temperate region and was acquired from a hot pool. Although resembling a fungus, it is insensitive to all antifungals and requires wide surgical excision for cure.
