To report a case of Xanthomonas maltophilia endophthalmitis and to increase awareness of its potential as an intraocular pathogen.
Case report.
A 76-year-old woman developed X maltophilia endophthalmitis after cataract extraction. To eradicate the infection, we performed two vitrectomies and treated the patient with numerous intravitreal antibiotic injections.
X maltophilia is a potential intraocular pathogen in an immunocompetent host. If the infection takes a persistent course, persistent topical and intravitreal antibiotic treatment and possibly vitrectomy are needed to eradicate the infection.
报告一例嗜麦芽窄食单胞菌性眼内炎病例，并提高对其作为眼内病原体可能性的认识。
病例报告。
一名76岁女性在白内障摘除术后发生嗜麦芽窄食单胞菌性眼内炎。为根除感染，我们进行了两次玻璃体切除术，并对患者进行了多次玻璃体内抗生素注射治疗。
嗜麦芽窄食单胞菌是免疫功能正常宿主中的一种潜在眼内病原体。如果感染呈持续性病程，则需要持续的局部和玻璃体内抗生素治疗，可能还需要进行玻璃体切除术以根除感染。
