摘要
Parinaud's oculoglandular syndrome is a rare eye disease caused by different pathogens, including bacteria, viruses and fungi. It is characterized by a granulomatous conjunctivitis with adjacent preauricular lymphadenopathy and can cause sequelae if not promptly treated. We report a case of a young nurse assistant and veterinary student showing Parinaud's oculoglandular syndrome caused by the fungus Sporothrix schenkii after contamination with infected cats. Its clinical presentation and negative outcome until the correct ethiological diagnosis, in addition to specific treatment, emphasize the importance of laboratory investigations in cases of atypical development of the disease.
