[A case of invasive liver abscess syndrome caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae causing endophthalmitis-induced blindness].

An 82-year-old female patient was admitted to our hospital for visual acuity loss in both eyes. The patient was diagnosed with invasive liver abscess syndrome and bilateral endophthalmitis due to Klebsiella pneumoniae 4 days after the onset of ocular symptoms. The liver abscess improved by broad-spectrum antibiotics and intravitreal injection, but bilateral blindness occurred. Most literature reported fever as the first symptom of invasive abscess syndrome, but this case had no fever at the onset of ocular symptoms. Delayed invasive liver abscess syndrome diagnosis might cause poor visual acuity prognosis.
