Dear Editor, W e have read the article by Abu-Yahgi [1] with great interest. The authors share their experience with bilateral same-session intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factors (anti-VEGF). They report a single case of endophthalmitis in a series of 342 injections of 74 patients and compare their results with their 3634 cases of unilateral injections with 2 cases o...
We report a case of group G Streptococcus endophthalmitis following an intravitreal ranibizumab injection for a choroidal neovascular membrane. Pars plana vitrectomy was applied for endophthalmitis and group G Streptococcus cultures were isolated in the vitreous samples taken from the patient. Twenty-four hours following pars plana vitrectomy the patient underwent myocardial infarction and card...
Graph or image title Endophthalmitis is a rare, but devastating outcome after intraocular surgery, trauma, systemic or local infection. It is characterized by inflammation involving the vitreous cavity and the anterior chamber of the eye. Once suspected, patients are subjected to ocular tissue biopsies, with microbial cultures, antibiotics delivered in multiple routes, and sometimes surgery to ...
Endophthalmitis is a potential vision-threatening complication following surgical procedures (postoperative endophthalmitis [POE]), trauma (posttraumatic endophthalmitis [PTE]), and bacteremic seeding of the eye from a distant infection site (endogenous endophthalmitis [EE]). Several studies have revealed the polybacterial characteristics of endophthalmitis, which make the administration of ant...
IMPORTANCE Our experience may be useful to other practitioners using compounded intravitreal agents, those suspecting infectious outbreaks, and those managing fungal endophthalmitis. OBJECTIVE To describe a series of patients with fungal endophthalmitis following intravitreal injection of combined bevacizumab and triamcinolone acetonide prepared by the same compounding pharmacy. DESIGN AND ...
To the Editors: We wish to share the results of a case series on pediatric endophthalmitis. Because this is not a common entity, it is our hope that this short review will serve to highlight the characteristics, treatment, and prognosis of pediatric endophthalmitis. During the 11-year retrospective study period, 7 eyes were identified. Of these cases, open globe injuries were the most common et...
OBJECTIVES To assess the frequency of retinal detachment following postcataract endophthalmitis and to evaluate the results of management of these detachments. METHODS Prospective data collected as part of the Endophthalmitis Vitrectomy Study were analyzed. The study was a randomized clinical trial testing the roles of vitrectomy and intravenous antibiotics in restoring vision in patients wit...
Objective: Bacterial endophthalmitis is among the most serious ocular infections. Nutritionally variant streptococci (NVS) are bacteria that are difficult to culture with standard media because of fastidious growth requirements. The cases of post-operative endophthalmitis caused by Granulicatella adiacens, one of the NVS were reported. Method: Case report and review of literature Results: In Ca...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Although adjunctive use of antiproliferative agents improves the success rate of glaucoma filtration surgery it profoundly alters the morphology of the filtering bleb. In view of these structural changes, which have been suggested to predispose to bleb infection, the relative importance of potential risk factors in the development of post-trabeculectomy endophthalmitis was inves...
