Endogenous bacterial endophthalmitis in infants is uncommon. We recently examined and treated an infant who presented with pink hypopyon which followed a Serratia marcescens septicaemia. Culture of the aspirate from the anterior chamber showed no red blood cells, and grew Serratia marcescens, which was also isolated from the tip of the child's umbilical artery catheter. The presence of a pink hypopyon in the absence of hyphaema may suggest the diagnosis of Serratia marcescens endophthalmitis.
婴儿内源性细菌性眼内炎并不常见。我们最近检查并治疗了一名婴儿,该婴儿出现粉红色前房积脓,继发于粘质沙雷氏菌败血症。前房穿刺液培养显示无红细胞,并培养出粘质沙雷氏菌,该菌也从患儿脐动脉导管尖端分离出来。在无前房出血的情况下出现粉红色前房积脓可能提示粘质沙雷氏菌性眼内炎的诊断。
