Candida Endophthalmitis After Descemet Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty With Grafts From Both Eyes of a Donor With Possible Systemic Candidiasis.

Interface fungal keratitis and endophthalmitis due to infected donor corneal tissue is difficult to treat, and both recipients of grafts originating from the same donor are at risk of developing this challenging condition.

Persistently Vitreous Culture-Positive Exogenous Fungal Endophthalmitis.

Candida was the single most common isolate, but the majority of isolates were molds.

Endophthalmitis Caused by Nontuberculous Mycobacterium: Clinical Features, Antimicrobial Susceptibilities, and Treatment Outcomes.

Endophthalmitis caused by nontuberculous mycobacterium often included chronic recurrent or persistent intraocular inflammation and frequently required removal of ocular device (intraocular lens, glaucoma implant, or scleral buckle).

Persistently Vitreous Culture-Positive Exogenous Bacterial Endophthalmitis.

The most commonly identified organisms were gram-positive bacteria. There was good concordance in the antibiotic sensitivities between initial and subsequent cultures. Patients with persistently vitreous culture-positive endophthalmitis had poor visual outcomes.

Endophthalmitis caused by Gram-positive organisms with reduced vancomycin susceptibility: literature review and options for treatment.

In the current study, visual acuity outcomes were generally poor. Enterococcus and Staphylococcus species were the most common organisms reported and postoperative endophthalmitis after cataract surgery was the most common clinical setting.
