摘要

Apiospora 属真菌是植物病原体，在人类感染病例中未见报道。在此，我们报告了一例由 Apiospora 菌引起的角膜炎病例，患者是一名木匠，他的眼睛被竹弹片击伤，当时他没有佩戴安全护目镜。在氢氧化钾钙氟白粉（Calco-KOH）制备的刮片上发现了细长的透明隔膜菌丝。角膜刮片上长出了一种无孢子的白色霉菌，通过内部转录间隔区（ITS）测序鉴定为 A. rasikravindrae。经过清创和局部抗真菌治疗，患者病情有所好转。需要采取教育干预措施，鼓励佩戴安全护目镜，以防止角膜受伤和失明。

Breaking new ground: First case of keratitis by Apiospora

Fungi belonging to Apiospora are phytopathogens not reported from human infections. Here, we report a case of keratitis due to Apiospora species in a carpenter who sustained a bamboo shrapnel injury to his eye when he was not wearing safety goggles. Thin hyaline septate hyphae were found on calcofluor white with potassium hydroxide (Calco-KOH) preparation of the scraping. A nonsporulating white mold grew from the corneal scrape, identified as A. rasikravindrae by Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) region sequencing. The patient improved with debridement and topical antifungal therapy. Educational interventions are needed to encourage safety goggles to prevent corneal injuries and blindness.
