Abstract | An 84 year-old woman was referred for evaluation of a painless swelling with small purulent discharge in her left upper canaliculus, and an associated epiphora of one-month duration. The patient was diagnosed with acute primary canaliculitis. She was treated with topical and oral antibiotics, as well as topical corticoids for three months, with little response. Surgical treatment with left upper canaliculotomy and curettage was then performed, and Gemella haemolysans was identified from the curetted material. The patient had no recurrence of the disease two months after the surgery.
This is the first time that Gemella haemolysans is described as unique agent causing primary canaliculitis.
Una mujer de 84 años acudió para valoración de una lesión nodular no dolorosa con pequeña descarga purulenta en su canalículo superior izquierdo, junto con epífora de un mes de duración. La paciente se diagnosticó de canaliculitis primaria aguda, siendo tratada con antibióticos tópicos y orales y corticoides tópicos durante 3 meses con escasa respuesta. Se realizó entonces una canaliculotomía con raspado, aislándose Gemella haemolysans en el material extraído y no observándose recurrencia alguna de la enfermedad 2 meses después de la cirugía.
Este caso constituye la primera descripción de Gemella hemolysans como agente causante de canaliculitis en aislamiento único. |
