  • Title: Chronic Staphylococcus aureus infection leading to pyogenic granuloma and preventing socket re-epithelialization after orbital exenteration.
    Author: Hatton MP, Durand ML, Rubin PA.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Plast Reconstr Surg; 2005 May; 21(3):236-8. PubMed ID: 15942503.
    Abstract:
    A 71-year-old woman underwent extenteration for conjunctival melanoma with orbital invasion. Her socket failed to epithelialize and contained a diffuse pyogenic granuloma that was caused by chronic Staphylococcus aureus infection. Extensive debridement and long-term intravenous antibiotics resulted in normal healing.
