[Postoperative endophthalmitis after non-pentrating deep sclerectomy].
Oftalmologia 2010
This is a case report concerning a patient that was subject to non-penetrating deep sclerectomy (with intraoperative Mytomicin C) for the management of advanced open angle glaucoma in the only functional eye. The surgery was uneventful, the visual acuity was preserved and the intraocular pressure was reduced. After 2 months the patient presented with symptoms of postoperative bleb-related endophthalmitis. The treatment of this condition (including pars plana vitrectomy) did not succeed in preventing a severe retinal necrosis that resulted in the loss of visual acuity This is, to our knowledge, the first published case of endophthalmitis after non-penetrating deep sclerectomy.
