TY - JOUR T1 - A case of oculoglandular tularemia resistant to medical treatment. [unboundmedicine.com]

It elucidates the rationale behind the various treatment regimes and the underlying principles of controlling the immune response. It covers identification of arthropods and common signs and symptoms of vector-borne disease. [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]

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]

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]
