Title: Chronic anaerobic bacterial endophthalmitis in pseudophakic rabbit eyes. Author: Nobe JR, Finegold SM, Rife LL, Edelstein MA, Smith RE. Journal: Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci; 1987 Feb; 28(2):259-63. PubMed ID: 8591905. Abstract: Experimental anaerobic bacterial endophthalmitis was produced in pseudophakic and aphakic rabbits by using anterior chamber inoculation of 2.5 x 10(6) Propionibacterium acnes organisms. Clinical inflammation was more intense and prolonged in operated eyes with an intraocular lens in place. The presence of an intraocular lens favors the development of chronic low-grade P. acnes-related inflammation.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
