The evaluation of therapeutic responses in experimental keratomycosis
Current Eye Research, 1992Two different measures of response to therapy were evaluated in a model of keratitis caused by Aspergillus fumigatus in Dutch-belted rabbits. Combined pre and post-inoculation treatment with oral fluconazole 37.5 mg/kg bid or itraconazole 40 mg/kg bid was compared to post-inoculation treatment only and untreated controls using a standardized clinical ...

Management of human keratomycosis with miconazole
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Ophthalmology, 1989AbstractA prospective clinical study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of 1 % miconazole in 85 cases of smear‐positive fungal corneal ulcers. Miconazole therapy healed 44 ulcers, thereby achieving a success rate of 64.7%. The most common organism encountered was Aspergillus followed by Fusarium, Philophora and Candida.

A.M.A. Archives of Ophthalmology, 1959
The complications of corneal infections are very easily forgotten now that antibiotics and corticosteroids are a common therapeutic regimen. It is well, therefore, to reemphasize that so-called antibiotic-resistant corneal infections may be due to fungi.

Corneal Biopsy in the Diagnosis of Keratomycosis
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1986In two patients, a 55-year-old man and a 49-year-old man, who had fungal keratitis initially undiagnosed by corneal scrapings the condition was successfully diagnosed by corneal biopsy. We compared corneal biopsy specimens and corneal scraping in the diagnosis of keratomycosis in rabbits with experimental bilateral fungal keratitis caused by Fusarium ...

Studies in experimental keratomycosis
Current Eye Research, 1985The study of experimental fungal infections requires effective animal models. Two such models in the rabbit model have been developed and applied to various aspects of topical antifungal therapy. In these models, the polyenes, as a class, are superior in efficacy to the imidazoles and flucytosine, but efficacy is clearly strain related. Corticosteroids,

Hormographiella aspergillatakeratomycosis in a dog
Veterinary Ophthalmology, 2009AbstractA 4‐year‐old, female, Border Collie was presented to the University of Bern Veterinary Teaching Hospital, because of a corneal lesion of 10 days duration. The axial cornea presented a whitish fluorescein‐positive plaque with irregular margins. A diagnosis of keratomycosis was made based on cytology.

Treatment of Keratomycosis with Amphotericin B 0.15%
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1976Amphotericin B 0.15% was tolerated and effective in the treatment of fungal ulcers of the cornea. In a series of 12 ulcers, four from which Fusarium was cultured, all responded to medical treatment. The mean final visual acuity in 11 of the 12 eyes with an adequate follow-up was 20/40.

Pseudallescheria boydii keratomycosis in a horse
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1989The fungal organism Pseudallescheria boydii was isolated from the cornea of a Quarter Horse with ulcerative keratitis. Despite aggressive hourly medication through a subpalpebral lavage system, with drugs including miconazole and natamycin, the cornea developed a stromal abscess. Orbital exenteration was performed after 3 weeks.

Advances in the Management of Keratomycosis and Acanthamoeba Keratitis
Cornea, 2000In the late 1960s, the management of fungal keratitis was a serious unresolved problem. Little was known of the epidemiology of the disease, and there were no antifungal agents formulated for use in the eye.A thorough review of the literature was done back to 1969 on clinical reports and experimental studies for keratomycosis and Acanthamoeba keratitis.
