Endophthalmitis developed in a 61-year-pld man after an intraocular lens implantation. A whitish opacity developed, visual acuity decreased to light perception, and we enucleated the eye. Paecilomyces lilacinus (Thom) Samson, a saphrophyte that has contaminated laboratory solutions, was cultured. |
