Abstract excerpt

We report a case of conjunctival tuberculosis in a trainee microbiologist caused by direct inoculation. The resident strain was analyzed by DNA fingerprinting, and an identical pattern was found in an isolate from sputum handled by the resident. After 6 months of treatment, the patient was cured.
