Journal Title: Acta Facultatis Medicae Naissensis - Year 2014, Vol 31, Issue 2
Abstract
Cilj ovog rada bio je da se predstavi klinički tok i hirurško lečenje prvog slučaja humane okularne dirofilariose na teritoriji grada Niša, u jugoistočnoj Srbiji. Muškarac, 57 godina starosti, obratio se oftalmologu zbog izrazitog otoka i crvenila kapaka desnog oka, subjektivnog osećaja grebanja i bola u desnom oku. Standardnim pregledom na biomikroskopu, u međukapačnom prostoru, temporalno 3 mm od limbusa, uočen je mobilan parazit ispod vežnjače. U lokalnoj anesteziji urađena je kompletna ekstrakcija živog parazita, dugog 13 cm. Uzorak nematode, na osnovu morfoloških i morfometrijskih karakteristika, je mikroorganizam poput Dirofilarie repens. Dijagnoza je potvrđena molekularnim metodama. Za humanu okularnu dirofilariozu, hirurška metoda, odnosno kompletna ekstrakcija parazita, jedini je i potpuni način izlečenja. Ključne reči: Dirofilaria repens, subkonjunktivalna, humana dirofilarioza
