【 摘 要 】

Mr. R.T. was a 49 year old male with recurrent Hepatitis C infection after orthotopic liver transplant, who presented with complications related to hemorrhagic pancreatitis. While on long term total parenteral nutrition, he developed blurry vision and Candida albicans fungemia. A fundus photograph revealed fungal endopthalmitis with focal areas of chorioretinitis. His vision improved significantly with serial intravitreal antifungal injections.
