Endophthalmitis is the syndrome of inflammation or infection of the ocular cavity and its adjacent structures and can result in severe sequelae, such as visual loss. Although most postoperative endophthalmitis following intraocular surgery is caused by infection with normal skin flora, cases associated with the intraoperative use of contaminated eye solutions or materials have been reported. This report summarizes outbreaks of postoperative bacterial (Pseudomonas aeruginosa or Bacillus spp.) endophthalmitis in Thailand and Canada; the outbreaks were associated with the intraoperative use of intrinsically contaminated basal salt solution (BSS) and hyaluronic acid.
眼内炎是眼腔及其相邻结构的炎症或感染综合征，可导致严重的后遗症，如视力丧失。虽然大多数眼内手术后的眼内炎是由正常皮肤菌群感染引起的，但也有报告称存在与术中使用受污染的眼用溶液或材料相关的病例。本报告总结了泰国和加拿大术后细菌性（铜绿假单胞菌或芽孢杆菌属）眼内炎的暴发情况；这些暴发与术中使用本质上受污染的基础盐溶液（BSS）和透明质酸有关。
