dc.description.abstractTwo cases of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia endophthalmitis, a rare cause of postoperative endophthalmitis, are reported in this study. Both of the patients underwent vitreus tap and intravitreal antibiotic injection. The therapy was augmented with systemic and subconjunctival injections. The response to this therapy protocol was excellent and the final visual acuity in both of the patients was 10/10. The results are discussed and the literature, which consists of only 8 reported cases of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia endophthalmitis, is reviewed. Although endophthalmitis caused by this pathogen is a rare but important cataract surgery complication, with appropriate therapy, this clinical presentation can be cured without risk of reoccurrence.en_US
