Endogenous fungus endophthalmitis (probably Aspergillus).

A 53-year-old organic chemist developed severe asthma and bronchitis a few weeks after professional exposure to plant dust. 15 days later an acute severe endophthalmitis occurred. Both the systemic and eye conditions were treated with corticosteroids and antibiotics. The atrophic eye which was enucleated 6 months later histologically revealed abscesses in the iris, ciliary body, lens and vitreous harbouring numerous islands of septate, dichotomously branching hyphae, orientated in the same direction and conidiospores, which is considered compatible with an aspergillus species.
