Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
A patient with 75 per cent of the body surface area burned developed metastatic endophthalmitis with orbital cellulitis leading to panophthalmitis in the right eye. In an estimated 1700 patients with burns treated in the same hospital over a period of 9 years (1984 to 1993), this is the first patient developing metastatic endophthalmitis. A possible pathological basis for the sequence of events is discussed. |
