Presentation
We present a patient with oculoglandular tularemia that did not respond to gentamicin to demonstrate the need for prolonged antimicrobial treatment and surgical intervention. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Wherever possible, different examples are shown of the same disease, in order to illustrate as wide a variety of presentations as possible. [books.google.com]
Oropharyngeal: The oropharyngeal form can present with stomatitis or an exudative pharyngitis or tonsillitis. There may also be ulcers and cervical lymphadenopathy. It may present with cervical nodes resembling the "bull neck" of diphtheria. [visualdx.com]
Presents a detailed exposition of the growing number of techniques for lamellar keratoplasty, including outcomes. Includes new sections on the latest developments in the management of ocular surface disease. [books.google.ro]

Prognosis
Well-organized Major Infectious Diseases chapters break down content by etiologic agent and epidemiology, clinical signs and their pathophysiology, physical examination findings, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis, immunity, prevention, and public health [books.google.ro]
The most serious infections are complicated by a secondary pneumonia and endotoxic shock, in which case the prognosis is grave. In oculoglandular tularemia the primary lesion is a papule in the conjunctiva, which becomes a pustule and ulcerates. [histopathology-india.net]
Etiology
Well-organized Major Infectious Diseases chapters break down content by etiologic agent and epidemiology, clinical signs and their pathophysiology, physical examination findings, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis, immunity, prevention, and public health [books.google.ro]
In many instances Parinaud's oculoglandular syndrome is probably a form of the same disease entity in which the etiologic agent has gained entrance into the conjunctiva rather than into the skin. [jamanetwork.com]
However, no case of uveitis has been reported in the course of tularemia and this etiology is not routinely included in the standard examination of uveitis patients. [bmcophthalmol.biomedcentral.com]
