Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate cases of post-traumatic endophthalmitis in terms of risk factors.Method: This chart review was performed on 67 eyes of 67 patients who were admitted to Shiraz Khalili Hospital with a clinical impression of post-traumatic endophthalmitis following penetrating eye trauma from 2002 to 2004 serving as the case group. Sixty-five patients with penetrating eye trauma but not endophthalmitis were selected as controls. Results: The case group included 52 (78%) male and 15 (22%) female subjects with mean age of 26.0±9.3 years, of which 33 (49%) were rural residents. The control group included 47 (72%) male and 18 (28%) female subjects with mean age of 24.0±11.2 years, of which 14 (21.5%) were from rural areas. Delayed repair (later than 24 hours) was seen in 44 (66%) of cases and 7 (11%) of controls (P=0.0005). Intraocular foreign body was found in 9 cases (13%) and 10 controls (15%) (P=0.46). Lens rupture was found in 38 cases (57%) and 3 controls (5%) (P=0.0005). The cornea was only involved in 30 cases (45%) and 45 controls (69%). Scleral involvement was seen in 37 cases (55%) vs 20 controls (31%) (P=0.012).Conclusion: Lens rupture, delayed primary repair and rural area as well as limbal and sclera involvement were associated with a higher rate of endophthalmitis. However, intraocular foreign body, age and sex had no role in predisposing to endophthalmitis.
