Burkholderia cepacia keratitis with endophthalmitis [PDF]
Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2009 Keratitis with endophthalmitis of the right eye occurred in a 78-year-female following a complicated cataract surgery. Prompt intravitreal vancomycin and ceftazidime with topical fortified tobramycin and cefazolin treatments were started. The corneal, aqueous and vitreous cultures grew a Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) strain on the fourth day ...
