We present a case in which a new organism, Sphingomonas paucimobilis, caused endophthalmitis after phacoemulsification in a 73-year-old woman. The case shows a recurrent acute endophthalmitis with complete resolution only after vitrectomy. This organism has not been described as a cause of endophthalmitis and was resistant to initial medical management. We also describe an interaction between this organism and a co-infective organism that may account for the unusual clinical course.
我们报告了一例病例，一名73岁女性在白内障超声乳化术后，一种新的微生物——少动鞘氨醇单胞菌引起了眼内炎。该病例表现为复发性急性眼内炎，仅在玻璃体切除术后才完全消退。这种微生物此前未被描述为眼内炎的病因，并且对初始药物治疗具有耐药性。我们还描述了这种微生物与一种合并感染的微生物之间的相互作用，这可能解释了该病例不寻常的临床病程。
