dc.description.abstract | PURPOSE: To present 4 patients that developed hemorrhagic retinal infarction attributable to inadvertent overdose of cefuroxime after cataract surgery. DESIGN: Case series. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Surgery in 4 patients was complicated-the posterior capsule was absent or torn-and anterior vitrectomy was performed. Cefufoxime was inadvertently injected at a dose higher than recommended in all 4 cases. RESULTS: Case 1 had hemorrhage in the central and inferior retinal regions, as well as optic atrophy. Case 2 had hemorrhage in the peripapillary and macular regions, as well as optic atrophy. Case 3 had hemorrhage in the peripapillary and inferior retinal regions, as well as macular pucker attributable to fibrovascular formation in the central retinal region. Case 4 had hemorrhage in the peripapillary, macular, and inferior retinal regions. The cefuroxime doses administered to the presented patients were much higher than reported in other cases and resulted in a higher concentration in the vitreous. Consequently, the severity of toxicity was much higher than in other reported cases of cefuroxime-induced toxicity. CONCLUSION: In cases of intracameral cefuroxime overdose, hemorrhagic retinal infarction can develop after cataract surgery. (C) 2014 by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. | en_US |
