RESUMO
PURPOSE: To present 10 cases of Parinaud oculoglandular syndrome caused by sporotrichosis. OBSERVATIONS: We report 10 cases of Parinaud oculoglandular syndrome after contact with domestic cats diagnosed with sporotrichosis. They all showed ocular hyperemia associated with unilateral tarsal conjunctival granulomas. After histopathological study and culture of the scrapings and conjunctival secretions, six patients were positive for Sporothrix schenkii and four had a presumed diagnosis of Parinaud oculoglandular syndrome due to sporotrichosis. Treatment with 200 mg/day of oral itraconazole was started, and all patients had a favorable therapeutic response. CONCLUSION AND IMPORTANCE: These case reports are essential for characterizing a rare etiology of Parinaud oculoglandular syndrome.
