Endophthalmitis caused by enterococci is rare, and cases involving vancomycin-resistant enterococci are even more so. Due to the poor bioavailability of many antibiotics in the vitreous chamber, special considerations are required when choosing antibiotics to treat these infections. The authors report the first case of exogenous endophthalmitis caused by Enterococcus casseliflavus via the uniqu...
INTRODUCTION Endogenous Fusarium endophthalmitis is a rare disease predominantly described in immunocompromised patients often due to leukemia. We report a case of bilateral endogenous Fusarium solani endophthalmitis in a liver-transplanted patient. CASE PRESENTATION A 56-year-old Danish Caucasian woman who had undergone two liver transplantations, developed endogenous endophthalmitis of her ...
OBJECTIVES To determine the rate of endophthalmitis in a group of patients with keratoprostheses and to analyze possible risk factors. METHODS A total of 108 patient eyes, operated on between 1990 and 2000 with double-plated keratoprostheses, were analyzed with regard to the surface flora, the incidence and cause of bacterial endophthalmitis or sterile vitreitis, the keratoprosthesis design, ...
OBJECTIVE To describe clinical presentation, antibiotic susceptibility, and outcomes in patients with Stenotrophomonas maltophilia endogenous endophthalmitis. DESIGN Retrospective case series. PARTICIPANTS Four eyes of four patients with S. maltophilia endogenous endophthalmitis. METHODS Retrospective chart review of culture-positive S. maltophilia endogenous endophthalmitis treated at L ...
PURPOSE To report the occurrence of endophthalmitis after trabeculectomy for glaucoma that was treated by vitrectomy without bleb closure and recurred 3 times after an initial clinically inapparent period of about 2 years. METHODS Interventional case report and short review of the pertinent literature. RESULTS A 73-year-old Caucasian female underwent trabeculectomy (without mitomycin) for g...
Two patients on total parenteral nutrition who developed endophthalmitis secondary to Candida albicans are described. Candidal endophthalmitis as a manifestation of systemic candidiasis is discussed and its early diagnosis by bedside fundal examination in patients at risk is stressed.
Postoperative endophthalmitis is a rare clinical occurrence. However, it remains one of the most serious complications following cataract surgery because of its poor prognosis. We investigated the epidemiologic trends in postoperative endophthalmitis following cataract surgery, particularly in Asian populations. The incidence of postcataract endophthalmitis was generally consistent with epidemi...
PURPOSE To report the causative organisms, management strategies, and visual outcomes in endogenous fungal endophthalmitis. DESIGN Observational case series. METHODS Microbiologic and medical records were reviewed retrospectively for all patients with culture-positive endogenous fungal endophthalmitis between January 1, 1990, and July 1, 2009. RESULTS Study criteria were met in 65 eyes of...
Bacterial endophthalmitis is endogenous in 2-6% of cases and is frequently misdiagnosed initially. Klebsiella pneumoniae is being increasingly recognised as an aggressive causative organism, and it is particularly prevalent in Asian populations. We describe the case of a 71-year-old female of Southeast Asian origin with type 2 diabetes mellitus who presented with visual loss secondary to bacter...
Purpose. We investigated acute endophthalmitis incidence following cataract surgery vis-a-vis the current technological and postoperative care changes in higher and lower socioeconomic categories of patients in South India. Methods. In a retrospective case control study, we analyzed 62 cases of acute endophthalmitis and 5 controls for each endophthalmitis case from 46,095 cataract surgeries don...
