To describe the clinical course and estimate the incidence of endophthalmitis after pars plana vitrectomy in New Zealand.
A retrospective analysis was performed on all cases of culture-positive endophthalmitis after vitreoretinal surgery over a 10-year period.
Five cases of culture-positive endophthalmitis were identified between 1993 and 2002. During this interval, 10,397 vitrectomies were performed, equating to an overall incidence of 0.048%. All patients presented within 7 days of surgery.
Endophthalmitis after pars plana vitrectomy is uncommon but is associated with a poor functional outcome.
描述新西兰经睫状体平坦部玻璃体切除术后眼内炎的临床病程并估计其发生率。
对10年间玻璃体视网膜手术后所有培养阳性的眼内炎病例进行回顾性分析。
1993年至2002年间共识别出5例培养阳性的眼内炎病例。在此期间,共进行了10397例玻璃体切除术,总体发生率为0.048%。所有患者均在术后7天内发病。
经睫状体平坦部玻璃体切除术后发生眼内炎并不常见,但与不良的功能预后相关。
