- W4307497961 abstract "To report a case of recalcitrant fungal keratitis successfully managed with topical caspofungin acetate in North India.Case report and literature review.An 18-year-old male patient presented with complaints of redness, watering, pain and diminution of vision in the right eye and was referred to our centre as a case of corneal ulcer. The patient was examined and found to have a near total epithelial defect, with corneal infiltrates approximately 8x8 mm. A provisional diagnosis of polymicrobial keratitis was made based on corneal scraping suggestive of Staphylococcus aureus and confocal scan revealing fungal hyphae. The patient failed to respond to topical voriconazole 1%, natamycin 5% and moxifloxacin hydrochloride 0.5% with oral voriconazole. In view of the poor response to these drugs, the patient was subsequently administered topical caspofungin 0.5% in place of natamycin and continued on topical and oral voriconazole, in addition to topical moxifloxacin and cycloplegics, which finally led to healing with minimal scarring. The patient attained a best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 6/12.Topical caspofungin may be used as a useful and effective alternative in cases of recalcitrant fungal keratitis. It may result in healing with minimal scarring." @default.
