Résumé

Paediatric endophthalmitis is a severe but rare complication of intraocular surgery, penetrating trauma and far less commonly extra-ocular surgery or endogenous origin. We set out to establish the incidence and risk factors of exogenous endophthalmitis in children, and to develop an evidence-based protocol that can be used for treatment of suspected exogenous endophthalmitis in children. Microbiology reports and operation numbers were obtained from two large tertiary referral hospitals sharing 24-h paediatric ophthalmology cover for the period January 2009-December 2016. All cases of aqueous and/or vitreous tap performed on children aged ≤18 years were identified and case notes reviewed for complete information on each case. Sixteen cases were eligible for inclusion as 'postoperative endophthalmitis': complete data was found on 13 cases. The incidence of postoperative endophthalmitis was 0.17% over 7 years. The mean age of presentation was 5.5 years (range from 7 months to 16 years and 9 months), from 3 days-78 months post operatively. In all, 11/13 had at least one glaucoma procedure. Microbiology results showed growth in 8/13. Most isolates were Gram-positive bacteria but Gram-negatives were also isolated and in one case Candida from a conjunctival swab. The antibiotic regime varied depending on age, organism identified and sensitivities. In all, 9/13 had hand movement or worse vision after treatment. Paediatric endophthalmitis may present to any paediatric/general ophthalmologist. It is a rare but devastating condition with poor visual prognosis, requiring prompt recognition and aggressive management. Previous glaucoma surgery is a long-term risk factor in our local paediatric population. Based on our study, an evidence-based protocol for management is proposed in order to improve outcomes.
