Abstract

In a 66-year-old white woman suppurative endophthalmitis and sympathetic uveitis developed simultaneously about eight months after conventional repair of a rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Histopathologic findings included vitreous abscess with probable staphylococcus organisms, total retinal detechment and diffuse chronic choroiditis with granulomatous foci, typical of sympathetic uveitis.
