Abstract

Objective: To assess incidence, causes and visual acuity outcomes of treatment in patients diagnosed with endophthalmitis. Material and Method: We evaluated the microbiological and medical records of patients diagnosed and treated with surgery for endoph- thalmitis between January 1, 2013 and July 31, 2017 with Retina-Net Patient registation System. Endophthalmitis incidence, causing factors and functional success after treatment were evaluated. Results: Sixty five eyes of 65 patients were enrolled in the study (63.1% males and 36.9% females). The overall initial mean visual acuity of endophthalmitis patients improved from 2.92± 0.63 LogMAR pretreatment to 1.82 ± 0.92 LogMAR after endophthalmitis treatment. The most frequent reason of endophthalmitis was cataract surgery and the most frequent microorganisms detected were Streptococcus pneumonia and Staphylococcus epidermidis. The overall incidence of gram-positive and gram negative microorganisms were 64% and 16% respectively. Conclusion: Endophthalmitis most frequently occurs after cataract surgery. The most frequent causative agents are gram-positive mi- croorganisms. Endophthalmitis after trauma is the one with the worst prognosis.

Özet

Amaç: Endoftalmi tanısı konan hastaların sıklığı, nedenleri ve görme keskinliği sonuçlarının ve etken mikro-organizmaların değerlendi- rilmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntem: 1 Ocak 2013-31 Temmuz 2017 tarihleri arasında başvurmuş ve endoftalmi tanısı alan hastaların mikrobiyolojik ve tıb- bi kayıtları Retina-Net Hasta Kayıt Sistemi’nden incelenerek değerlendirildi. Endoftalmi sıklığı, endoftalmiye neden olan etkenler ve uygula- nan tedavi sonrası elde edilen fonksiyonel başarı değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Çalışmaya 65 hastanın 65 gözü (%63,1 erkek ve %36,9 kadın) alındı. Tüm endoftalmi hastalarının başlangıç ortalama görme keskinliği, tedavi öncesi 2,92± 0,63 LogMAR’dan, endoftalmi tedavisi sonrası 1.82 ± 0.92 LogMAR’a ilerledi. Endoftalminin en sık nedeni ka- tarakt operasyonu, en sık tespit edilen mikroorganizmalar Streptococcus pneumonia ve Staphylococcus epidermidis idi. Gram pozitif ve gram negatif mikroorganizmaların oranı sırasıyla %64 ve %16 idi. Sonuç: Endoftalmi en sık katarakt operasyonu sonrasında oluşmaktadır. Endoftalmiye en sık neden olan etkenler gram pozitif mikroorga- nizmalardır. Travma sonrası gelişen endoftalmiler prognozu en kötü olanlardır.
