[Treatment of bacterial endophthalmitis by vitrectomy and intraocularly administered antibiotics (author's transl)]. 1981

J Faulborn

Local and systemic applications of antibiotics in cases of vitreous bacterial infections have proved insufficient because of blood-vitreous barriers. Intravitreal antibiotic injections overcome these barriers and may control the infection. Recommendations are given for intravitreal therapy with Gentamicin, combined with a pars plana vitrectomy in advanced infections.
