- W4284707455 abstract "Abstract Purpose To study predisposing factors, clinical presentation and management strategies for klebsiella keratitis. Methods A retrospective case review was performed on clinical records of culture-proven klebsiella keratitis cases in a tertiary referral center over an 8-year period (from 2012 to 2020). Results Thirty eight episodes of culture-proven klebsiella keratitis were identified in 37 patients. The mean age of the patients was 62.9 years (range, 24–101).. Multiple predisposing factors were identified in 33 eyes including history of previous keratoplasty (n = 11) history of ocular trauma (n = 7), preexisting ocular surface disease(n = 7) and diabetes(n = 6). Corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) was light perception (LP) in 16 patients, hand motion (HM) in 12, counting fingers (CF) at 50 centimeters in 5, CF at 1 meter in 1, CF at 2 m in 2 .One patient had a CDVA of 3/10. On initial examination Hypopyon was detected in 21 eyes. Descemet's membrane folds were present in 1 eye. Corneal thinning was identified in 20 eyes and perforation occurred in 4 patients. Corneal ulcer progressed to endophthalmitis in one patient. Microbiologic sensitivity testing showed that 89.5% isolates were sensitive to amikacin (34/38),88.9%sensitive to ceftazidime (32/36),94.4% were sensitive to gentamicin (34/36),97.2% sensitive to ciprofloxacin (35/36), and 100% to levofloxacin (26/26).Ultimately, one or more surgical procedures was needed in 21 patients. Conclusion Previous keratoplasty, history of ocular trauma, ocular surface disease and systemic disease such as diabetes are major risk factors for Klebsiella keratitis. In most of the patients, surgical and tectonic procedures were necessary to control the infection." @default.
