摘要：

Postoperative endophthalmitis is a rare complication of ophthalmic surgery. The use of prophylactic antibiotics and scrupulous surgical techniques will help to reduce its incidence, but sporadic cases may still occur. If postoperative endophthalmitis is a diagnostic possibility aggressive investigation and initial management improves the prognosis. More work needs to be done to evaluate the penetration of newer antibiotics into the eye and their therapeutic role. The use of corticosteroids also needs to be more carefully defined in the treatment of this potentially devastating disease. © 1991.
