ABSTRACT

Although more reports on the fungal keratitis are recently coming out, cases of mixed infection by two or more fungal agents have not yet beenreported in the literature. The authors experienced a case of fungal keratitis caused by a combination of Fusarium solani and Acremonium falciforme in which central corneal ulcer with severe suppurative infilteration and hypopyon were observed. Since the conditions were resistant to conservative treatment and corneal perforation occurred despite of medical treatment, penetrating keratoplasty was performed along with postoperative topical and systemic antifungal therapies for several weeks and good results were obtained with no evidence of recurrence.
