The diagnosis of delayed post-operative endophthalmitis by polymerase chain reaction of bacterial DNA in vitreous samples

1 Jun 1994

Abstract excerpt

Delayed post-operative endophthalmitis is a complication of modern cataract extraction and posterior chamber lens implantation. Propionibacterium acnes has been isolated in a few such cases but the majority are culture-negative, compounding surgical and medical management decisions. A method of detecting bacterial, and specifically P. acnes, DNA by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) directed at 16S rDNA is...
