Ein erhabenes Infiltrat, Satellitenherde und ein pyramidenförmiges Hypopyon sind nahezu pathognomonisch für eine mykotische Keratitis. Dieser typische Befund ist in solcher Eindeutigkeit jedoch selten, meist wird die korrekte Diagnose spät gestellt. Insbesondere bei fortgeschrittenen Befunden kann es zu einem Verlust des Auges kommen. Aus diesem Grund empfehlen wir eine zügige und aggressive Therapie, die entsprechend des Verlaufs aktiv angepasst wird.
